  2. If you have been involved in an accident whilst traveling on public transport (bus, train coach etc) - you might be entitled to compensation. If the bus accident involves a collision with another vehicle, it is very likely you would be able to claim compensation for personal injuries caused by the bus accident. If the bus driver was at fault for the collision, the compensation claim would be made against the bus company that employs the driver. If the driver is found to be at fault for the bus accident, the bus passenger compensation claim would be made against the bus company involved. Click here for more information.
