Liability For Webster School Bus Collisions

School buses are considered “common carriers” under the law, and their drivers are held to a high standard in terms of safety. They must do everything that human care and vigilance can do to avoid collisions. School buses can weigh ten to twenty times more than a passenger vehicle. There are a number of factors that could contribute to a school bus collision.

• Speeding
• Distracted driving
• Inclement weather
• Driver fatigue

All bus drivers must use a great deal of caution in order to avoid collisions. If a bus driver fails to exercise due care and causes a collision, this could form the basis of a negligence claim. The company or school district that a bus driver worked for could be held at fault. Any person who is injured in a school bus accident may have legal recourse through a civil claim.
