Thousands of people in the U.S. have turned to public transportation as an alternative to paying increasing gas prices, traffic congestions and long harsh commutes. In Orange County and Rancho Santa Margarita, thousands of residents ride buses daily, including school children and teens, as their only means of transportation. Unfortunately, as the number of riders increase, more and more busses are used resulting in an increased number of accidents and personal injuries each year.

Some factors that may contribute to bus accidents in Orange County include:

• Bus driver negligence
• Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
• Reckless behavior
• Weather conditions
• Bad road conditions
