By Dr. Roy Scott Hickman and Paul F. Hill, Esq. Until now, attorneys, accident reconstructionists, and insurance professionals have not had access to a source book of information that would allow them to build and reconstruct an accident involving a school bus, motor coach or recreational vehicle. This book fills that gap. Although accidents involving buses are rare, they can be deadly.
Accidents make up the leading cause of claims against transit agencies.
Similarly, bus operator negligence is often the cause of these accidents and preventable. You will learn about the hallmarks of an effective risk management program. All this information and more is provided in the many tables and examples located throughout this book. Because buses are built similar to trucks, bus-automobile accidents are often dramatically serious for automobile occupants. When litigating a claim against a transit company, there are many issues to detangle.
