Our client was on his daily commute to work, traveling on Highway 59, when the weather took a dangerous turn. Snow and ice quickly transformed the road. A truck ahead of him was trying to make a left turn onto a two-lane highway. As our client and the cars behind him struggled to stop without losing traction, he decided to pull off onto the shoulder to avoid a collision.
A caravan of buses, carrying workers to the coal mines, continued to speed down the road, oblivious to the changing conditions. As they crested a hill, two of the buses lost control. One veered off into a ditch, narrowly missing our client, while the other collided directly with the rear of his vehicle.
Our team fought tirelessly for justice, ensuring that our client received the settlement he deserved after this traumatic experience. His life had been interrupted by forces beyond his control, but with our advocacy, he was able to move forward with the compensation necessary for his recovery.
Injuries Our Client Sustained From The Bus Accident
Following the accident, our client sought medical care for his injuries, which included whiplash, significant back pain, and a traumatic brain injury. He underwent weeks of rehabilitation and therapy to recover from his injuries, but unfortunately, he faced long-term consequences, including cognitive and vision difficulties.
His mother, deeply concerned about the severity of his injuries, noticed the significant changes in his condition. Recognizing the gravity of the situation, she reached out to Olson Personal Injury Lawyers for help, determined to ensure her son received the justice and support he deserved.
The Liable Parties For The Bus Accident
After a thorough investigation, it was determined that the company was responsible for the accident. Despite the dangerous conditions during an ongoing snowstorm, they allowed the caravan of buses to transport workers to the coal mines. Additionally, the bus driver was also held liable. It was later revealed that the driver himself questioned whether they should have been on the road, but ultimately, he had a job to do.
