Chesapeake, VA Personal Injury Attorney Reports: Car Collides With Chesapeake School Bus

Chesapeake, Virginia (VA), school bus was struck by a car at the intersection of Cedar Road and Bells Mill Road, leaving one of the 43 students aboard injured. The student complained that her neck hurt and was taken to a hospital. A passenger in the car was injured.



Authorities are still investing the cause of the wreck, which could have been much worse. As a Chesapeake car accident attorney, I've seen my fair share of bad accidents. Many parents are frustrated that the National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration has yet again refused to demand seat belts on school buses.

While school bus crashes rarely involve major injuries or fatalities for student passengers, equipping the vehicles with seat belts could prove worth the cost and effort if doing so prevents even just one injury.
