Bus Accidents In Nassau and Suffolk County

Nassau and Suffolk County personal injury attorney Thomas J. Foley, of the Foley Griffin law firm, talks about bus accidents in New York.

Public transportation is useful — it provides a way for us to get places, without the cost of owning a car, or having to know how to drive. These larger vehicles, however, require special licenses and training to drive them. Bus drivers must be properly trained before the company lets them drive. When an insufficiently trained bus driver causes injury to someone, this is negligence, and the bus company might be liable. Often, bus accidents are more severe than car accidents.
