Fatal Bus Accident in San Francisco

11.18.10

A UCSF white shuttle bus struck and killed a 65 year old woman Wednesday as she was crossing Geary Street at Leavenworth Street in San Francisco as reported by the San Francisco Chronicle on November 18, 2010.    The 12:27 p.m. accident occurred as the bus was headed north on Leavenworth and turned left onto Geary, hitting the victim, who was pronounced dead at the scene.

From a personal injury standpoint numerous issues arise.  Was the lady in a crosswalk?  Did she across against a “no walk” signal?  These issues come into play when addressing liability?  Also, what about damages?   Was the lady retired?  Was she married?  These are more issues.  If  you have have been involved in an accident and have questions, please contact The Otus Law Group today to speak to an experienced San Francisco bus accident attorney.
