Are busses the safest way to travel, and what of bus accident compensation?

It seems that there may not be as many claims for bus accident compensation made in the UK as there are compensation claims for personal injuries resulting from other transport accidents.

There were a total of 271,017 road accident casualties reported in Great Britain during 2005, according to an Annual report carries out by the Department for Transport. More than 28,000 of the people involved sustained serious personal injuries while 3,201 were killed. The majority of these road accidents involved cars, vans and other personal vehicles.

Road accidents are clearly the most prolific type of accident to occur in the UK today and can result in passenger injuries from whiplash right through to spinal cord injuries and brain damage. We are associated with a panel of personal injury solicitors who, on a daily basis, help people who have been harmed in such accidents to claim the compensation that they deserve.

According to the Transport Statistics Great Britain 2006 Edition, 5,172 people sustained personal injury in train accidents, accidents through movement of railway vehicles and accidents on railway premises in 2005. However, the odds of being killed in a train crash are 500,000/1 and public transport has been deemed the safest way to travel.

Despite busses receiving quite bad press in the last year, such as that emanating from the National Express bus crash that happened near Heathrow Airport in January 2007, they are one of the most risk-free modes of transport. Bus accidents are more common in developing countries where the roads are in a worse condition than those in the UK where the chances of being killed in a bus crash are 13 million to one.

While road accidents involving busses are not particularly common in the UK they are, unfortunately, a fact of life. But the good news is that if you want to make a bus accident compensation claim you have come to the right place.
