Public Transportation Injuries

Every day, countless citizens count on public transportation for their commute to work, school, and other essential errands.

  • Bus accidents
  • Platform accidents
  • Slipping or falling inside the bus or subway
  • Defective turnstiles
  • Tired bus drivers or subway operators
  • Inappropriate bus drop-offs
  • Potholes at a bus stop
  • Getting crushed or caught in the subway doors
  • Fires within the subway
  • Sudden stops on a subway or bus leading to injury
  • Being dragged by a subway or bus
  • Subways or busses that are not well-maintained
  • Robbery or assault on a bus or subway
