Common Injuries in Bus Accidents
Bus passengers typically lack seat belts and other basic safety protections, making them especially vulnerable during an accident. Whether the crash involved a city bus on Evergreen Way or a school bus near Silver Lake, the injuries can be catastrophic.
Injuries may include:
- Broken bones
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Head trauma
- Spinal cord damage
- Deep lacerations and abrasions
- Internal injuries and organ damage
- Disfigurement or permanent disability
- Muscle and soft tissue damage
- Fatal injuries
When children are involved, as in school bus accidents, the emotional toll is especially high. Parents deserve answers and accountability when their child is harmed on what should be a safe ride.
