Busses are considered "common carriers." According to Florida law, the drivers and owners of these vehicles must demonstrate "the utmost duty of care" in maintaining and operating their vehicles in order to ensure the safety of those they serve.

If bus owners or bus drivers fail to uphold their responsibilities, and a serious wreck that injures you or a loved one occurs, they can likely be held liable. If you file a personal injury claim against them you may be able to recover financial damages for your medical bills, ongoing expenses, missed time at work and much more.
