Bus Accidents in North Dakota

Tens of thousands of bus accidents are reported in the United States every year. Here in North Dakota, we see innocent people harmed as a result of these accidents quite often. Victims of bus accidents are likely to suffer severe trauma to the head, broken bones, and other serious injuries that result in the need for medical care. Unfortunately, many victims have their lives completely disrupted as they are forced out of work and forced into area hospitals for treatment.

To make matters even worse, many of the bus accidents that we see are completely preventable. In fact, driver error is a leading factor in the vast majority of these accidents. There are many factors that contribute to the high rate of automobile accidents reported in North Dakota each year. These include:

• Distracted driving
• Impaired driving
• Driver fatigue
• Speeding
• Inadequate maintenance
