WHAT TO DO AFTER A SCHOOL BUS ACCIDENT IN LANCASTER COUNTY

Check for injuries After an accident, it is essential to check the children for injuries. A school bus accident can cause severe damage to a child's head and neck if they are not properly checked for injury after the crash. This may seem like common sense, but many parents do not know what they should be doing or looking out for when checking their child after an accident.

Call the police and an ambulance When a school bus crashes, parents should consider calling the police and an ambulance if necessary. The emergency services can be called from any mobile phone, but it is recommended that they are contacted by landline or the emergency number for their country.

Document the accident.

Documentation after an accident is always important, but sometimes even more so in the case of a school bus since they are often carrying children at the time of the accident. It's best to be prepared for this scenario and have what you need readily available in case something like this happens while your child(ren) is on board one of these buses.

Call an Attorney A school bus accident can be traumatic and chaotic for all involved. It's important to know what steps to take immediately after the accident and for your family in the long term. Contacting an experienced attorney is an excellent step if you or someone you love has been injured in a school bus crash.

Refuse to speak to anyone If you have recently been in a school bus accident, you are probably already aware that many different parties are involved. It is essential to understand who represents each party and how much information you should share with them. Only speak to an attorney representing your interests when it comes time for negotiations - do not allow yourself to be swayed by the other side's attorneys or insurance adjusters.
