    As in the case of Acosta v. Southern California Rapid Transit District 2 Cal.3d 19, 84 Cal. Rptr. 184 (1970), the plaintiff walked through a half-filled bus to find a seat as she did this, the light changed and the bus started behind another vehicle approximately 40 feet behind it. The driver knew that on the next block there contained a mid-block crosswalk for pedestrians and as he approached the crosswalk he noticed several young boys crossing so he placed his foot on the brake and let the bus coast for about 15 – 20 miles per hour. He abruptly placed the foot on the break when the car in front of him came to a sudden halt in order to avoid hitting the boys going through the crosswalk. In that sudden stop, the plaintiff and two other women were thrown forward in the bus and fell over the coin box and onto the floor placing plaintiff at the bottom. The court in this case favored the plaintiff due to the issue that the bus being a common carrier needed to have the utmost duty of care towards its passenger’s and the court had acknowledged that with the evidence given the driver of the bus had not used the utmost duty of care towards his passenger’s since the driver had knowledge of his daily route and he should have taken more precautions when he saw plaintiff standing, knowing very well the traffic was not a steady flow. As in the case of Acosta, you, the bus company, are held responsible for carrying for your passenger’s. Nicholas the driver did not have the utmost duty of care when driving before Ms. Schultz was seated, nor did he consider her age when he decided to proceed driving prior to her being safely secure in a seat. Ms. Schultz being a frequent bus rider, I’m sure encountered Nicholas the bus…

    Susie, Jerry and Katie drove around for about a half an hour without taking Susie home. Jerry made one stop which was located down the street where Susie lived, but Susie never got off on the first stop. At some point, Jerry lost control of the vehicle while making a left turn resulting in the truck turning over and seriously injuring Susie. After the incident Susie filed a complaint against the City of Elsewhere, Officer Ruthless, and other defendants, alleging that the City and the Police were negligent and therefore liable for her injuries. The main issue is to prove if the City and Officer Ruthless are liable for Susie’s injuries, due to the simple fact that Officer Ruthless ordered Susie Marks to ride in Jerry’s camper because of the park curfew time.…

    A family recently reached a settlement for injuries caused by a 2007 tractor trailer accident after seeking representation from a personal injury law firm in Texas. A family of three, injured in a Texas 18 wheeler truck accident near Chappel Hill, in Washington County, recently received a settlement of $435,000 after being represented by The Carlson Law Firm (Cause No 2011-CI-00049). The suit was filed in the 150th Judicial District Court of Bexar County, Texas.
