We help you claim where the injury was caused by: - Negligent or aggressive driving by the bus/coach driver. - Injuries sustained inside the vehicle (e.g., falls due to sudden movement, slipping on wet floors, seating defects). - Injuries sustained while boarding or alighting the vehicle. - Negligent driving by a third party. ![Bus and Coach Accident Claims](https://www.dorianssolicitors.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Dorian%20Solicitors%20Images%20(2).webp?width=600&height=400&name=Dorian%20Solicitors%20Images%20(2).webp) ## Crucial Evidence: Protect Your Claim The evidence you gather immediately following an accident is vital to proving your case against the driver or local authority. We strongly advise you to: #### Secure the negligent diver’s details and the vehicle make, model and registration. #### Secure Witness Details Get names and phone numbers of any witnesses immediately. #### Seek Medical Help Attend your GP or A&E immediately. Medical records linking the injury to the accident are essential for valuation. #### Document Everything Take clear photographs of the scene, road defects, and your damaged bicycle. #### Keep Dashcam/Helmet Footage Preserve any relevant video evidence, as it is often crucial for establishing liability.
