California Bus Accident Settlement
There are hundreds of bus accidents that happen every day in the state of California. Unfortunately, they aren’t all “accidents.” Some are caused by careless drivers, reckless drivers, drunk drivers, distracted drivers, and drivers disobeying traffic laws. If you are injured in a bus collision, you may be entitled to compensation. However, according to California’s statute of limitations, a victim has only two years to file his or her bus injury case. Sadly, many California residents never realize that they were entitled to some type of compensation because of their bus crash.
Unfortunately, rarely are seatbelts installed in busses. This can result in more severe injuries than would have occurred had there been a seatbelt for passengers. For many people, what seems like a mild injury after a bus crash can often develop into a chronic condition because of the arthritis and joint stiffness that develops years later. Others develop head, brain, back and spinal cord problems that they weren’t aware of for days or even months after the bus accident. That’s why most legal experts advise that you take action now. The compensation you may receive can be upwards of $200,000 or more, depending on your injury.
