Were You Injured in a Bus Accident? We Can Help

Sightseeing and Tour Bus Accidents are on the Rise

Here in Philadelphia, PA, we see dozens of sightseeing buses, owned and operated by various companies, taking sightseers throughout the city and showing them City Hall, Love Park, Rittenhouse Square, Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell, Betsy Ross’ House, and all the other historic landmarks. And we see dozens more tour buses bringing out-of-area history buffs into the city for the sightseeing tours, Philly’s famous cuisine, and theatrical performances. And with all of these buses clogging our streets and freeways, it’s no wonder that sightseeing and tour bus accidents are on the rise.

Generally speaking, sightseeing or tour buses are a fairly safe way to travel. But that doesn’t mean accidents don’t happen. There is always room for human error, be it the bus driver or another motor vehicle’s driver. And, with the high number of miles each bus drives throughout the year, there are always potential issues with poor bus maintenance. Other major contributors to sightseeing and tour bus accidents are failure to implement and follow safety precautions, design or manufacturing defects, dangerous road conditions, and inclement weather.
