Being seated all day, bus drivers need a comfortable chair that will support their backs and protect them from injuries caused by sudden braking or minor collisions. If a driving seat is faulty, it can lead to serious injury for which a personal injury claim may be sought.
In 2010, a Norwich bus driver made a compensation claim after he suffered a broken back falling off a broken seat while driving.
The driver had been setting off on his normal route when his seat collapsed causing him to be thrown backwards which made the bus swerve into oncoming traffic. Thankfully, there was no traffic accident resulting from the broken seat and the driver was able to safely return the bus to the car park despite his injury.
The Norwich driver suffered a fractured vertebra in the incident and was unable to return to work immediately after it happened due to the pain his injury caused him.
The bus driver sought the advice of a personal injury lawyer to make a compensation claim against his former employees for failing to carry out proper inspection of the fleet of buses despite warnings from him and colleagues over their condition.
The Dereham based company admitted liability for the incident but the compensation amount to be awarded to the injured driver was not disclosed.
If you have had to seek the services of a personal injury solicitor following an accident suffered at work, you could be entitled to a compensation claim for your personal injury.
