Oakland AC Transit Bus Crash Lawyer: Know Your Rights
AC Transit Bus Crashes Into Oakland Building, Injuring 4
On Tuesday afternoon, an AC Transit bus crashed into an auto body shop near Foothill Boulevard and 68th Avenue in Oakland. Reports state that the collision sent at least four people to the hospital and additional people at the scene were evaluated by emergency crews. A structural engineer was requested to inspect the building after the impact.
When a bus leaves the roadway and goes into a building, it isn’t just a traffic incident. It’s a serious crash that can leave passengers, workers inside nearby businesses, and people on the street with injuries, medical bills and a lot of unanswered questions.
