TYPES OF PUBLIC TRANSPORT ACCIDENTS

Because you are using a service provided by someone else, public transport accidents are often not the passengers’ fault. Lots of accidents can happen while using public transport, including:

  • Sliding on wet surfaces while transport is moving
  • Tripping or falling when boarding or getting off
  • Tripping or falling over luggage or other items
  • Injuries caused by sharp edges or faults on fixtures and fittings
  • Injuries caused by reckless or careless driving
  • Collisions caused by the driver, another road user or a pedestrian

IF YOU’VE HAD A PUBLIC TRANSPORT ACCIDENT

If you’ve been injured in a public transport accident, you might have to take some time off work. If your injuries are more severe or long-lasting, you may not be able to work at all. Lost earning and treatment costs can put a strain on your finances. In these circumstance, it can be helpful to seek compensation for the accident.
To claim compensation for a public transport accident, it needs to have happened in the last three years and the accident can’t be your fault.

WHO AM I CLAIMING COMPENSATION FROM?

All public transport companies are insured for incidents just like this. They will be prepared for compensation claims and have insurance to cover the cost of pay outs. You will not be claiming from an individual, like the bus driver, for example.

5/5 Stars – Outstanding service and wonderful staff! I cannot recommend Porter Wood Law enough! From start to finish, the entire team made my claim process smooth, stress-free, and straightforward. A huge, heartfelt thank you to Mrs Marzena she is an absolute gem! Extremely warm, kind, and deeply supportive throughout the entire process. She always took the time to explain everything clearly and made me feel completely cared for and listened to. My sincere thanks also go to Mr. Chris Wood for his incredible professionalism, efficiency, and expert guidance. He handled my case brilliantly and achieved a fantastic outcome for me. They are a top-tier team that genuinely cares about their clients, rather than just treating them as case numbers. If you need a reliable, professional, and friendly law firm, look no further!
