Have you ever heard the phrase “I feel like I’ve been hit by a bus”? If so, you probably know that it means being completely floored by tiredness, an illness, or life in general. The saying did not come from anywhere, as the sheer size and weight of the buses operating in and around San Bernardino means that, if you really have been hit by a bus, you are likely to have sustained serious injuries. You may also have lost a loved one in the accident. Whether you use the public transportation buses operated by Omnitrans across San Bernardino County, or a school bus, any collision you are involved in may well have catastrophic consequences.
While Omitrans, and other bus operator, supervisors and safety inspectors are sure to investigate and examine the scene of an accident involving their vehicles, you should not rely on their decision relating to the causes of the collision.
