Things to remember when making a bus accident compensation claim

Thousands of people in the UK use buses on a daily basis to get to and from work or school, pop into town, or go on day trips but unfortunately bus accidents are a fact of life. They are less frequent than in some developing countries that have poorly maintained and poorly lit roads.

Nevertheless, the National Express bus crash that occurred in 2007 demonstrated the tragedy and distress that these road accidents can bring. Similarly, the latest bus accident figures for Leeds revealed that there were almost 300 casualties reported during 2005/2006.

If you have sustained passenger injuries in a bus accident, no matter how serious or minor, you may be entitled to claim personal injury compensation from the bus company that you were travelling with if they have failed in their duty of care towards you. Below are a few things that might help you when making a compensation claim:

• Make sure that you notify the driver that you have sustained passenger injuries.
• Make a note of the bus route number, vehicle registration number and the driver's name, if possible.
• Make sure that you keep hold of your bus ticket.
• Make a note of any witnesses to the bus accident and take down their contact details.
