Public Transit Accident Lawyers in Calgary, Lethbridge, and Grande Prairie

Today, public transportation affords us safe and economical ways to move from place to place. Edmonton Transit and Calgary Transit are some of the safest ways of getting around Alberta. School buses pick up our children each day. We put so much trust in these strangers driving us and our precious cargo around, yet we know nothing about them. Do they have alcohol problems? Did they get enough sleep? Human error and impairment enter into driving risks on our roads each day. Although they happen with far less frequency than automobile accidents, Canadians are injured in bus and train accidents each year. If you have been injured in a public transit accident, call the personal injury experts at BILAB Personal Injury Lawyer. We have represented victims of accidents in Calgary, Lethbridge, and Grand Prairie for over four decades. Our success record is unsurpassed in recovering compensation for our clients.

Public transit accidents can be more complicated than other motor vehicle accidents when it comes to determining fault. The operator as well as the municipality may bear responsibility depending on the individual situation. If there was negligence on the part of the operator, a claim can be made against the responsible operator. Additionally, pedestrians and the occupants of other vehicles can suffer serious injury in collisions with these larger vehicles.

Like any other motor vehicle accident, the victim of a public transit accident can suffer grave injuries. Add the fact that these are large vehicles with often numerous occupants. Occupants of buses and trains can sustain injuries during an accident due to the lack of seat belts. The most common injuries sustained after a bus accident are bruises, cuts, head injuries, spinal injuries, and fractures.
