Public Transportation Accidents (Buses And Trains)

We are equipped for any scenario involving public transit vehicles:

• Car occupants injured in a bus collision
• Bus passengers injured in a crash or sudden stop
• Injuries while riding a commuter train
• Pedestrians or bicyclists struck by a bus or train
• Injuries at bus stops or train platforms
• Dial-a-ride buses, airport shuttles, taxis
• School bus accidents

Many people do not realize that personal injury protection (PIP) insurance does not apply to common carrier vehicles (buses, trains, taxis, etc.) That means that you must file a formal claim against the entity and, unlike no-fault insurance, you must prove negligence on the part of the bus driver, train operator or entity. That is where Gonzalez & Associates can help. We have the experience to prove fault and maximize your compensation, including lost wages, permanent impairment, and pain and suffering.
