Like any traffic collision, bus accidents can lead to serious – if not fatal – personal injuries. Countless Long Island residents rely on public transportation to get around. However, the size and weight of these vehicles can lead to devastating traffic accidents. Unlike automobile crashes, which usually involve a small number of passengers, bus accidents can result in dozens of individuals being harmed.

Common Causes of Bus Accidents on Long Island

  1. Poor bus maintenance
  2. Weather conditions
  3. Defective auto parts
  4. Dangerous road conditions
  5. Bus driver negligence
