Los Angeles School Bus Accidents
This morning, a Los Angeles Unified School Bus was involved in an injury collision in Los Angeles.It's something that no parent ever wants to hear. But legally speaking, who's responsible for a Los Angeles school bus crash?A lot depends on who is found at-fault for the collision. If a driver in another vehicle is found to be at-fault, that driver's insurance would be on the hook for property damage and injuries.What if a school-bus driver is at fault?If the driver is employed by a public agency, such as a school district, then the school district might be on the hook for injuries suffered in a Los Angeles school bus crash.Any time a case involves a public agency, there are strict time limits that must be followed. Failing to follow these procedures can be fatal to a personal injury claim.School buses manufactured in California after 2005 must come equipped with seat belts.We wish all students safe passage to and from school in Los Angeles!
