Common Causes of School Bus Accidents

School bus accidents can be caused by a number of factors. These include:

Lack of seat belts
Bus overcrowding
Speeding
Driver inattention
Driver intoxication
Driver fatigue
Defective warning lights

It is noted that as early as 1968 the National Safety and Transportation urged that seat belts be installed in national bus line buses. Over 40 years later, few buses, including school buses, provide seat belts. These and other safety issues all lead to dangerous and situations for all children aboard the bus - and leave them vulnerable to catastrophic injuries in the event of an accident.
