A “common carrier” is generally defined as a commercial bus, school bus, train, taxi, airplane, or other method of public transportation (such as a ferry or cruise). When you use any sort of communal transportation, you expect that your travel will be safe and incident-free. Obviously, that is the ideal situation – and bus, train, plane, and ferry accidents are fewer than automobile accidents. When they do occur, however, the results can be devastating.
If you have been injured in a common carrier accident, you have the legal right to seek monetary compensation for your injuries. As commercial carriers, these transportation companies have the obligation to train their employees in the proper care and operation of the vehicles. If an employee of a common carrier company was improperly trained, negligent, or careless and caused an injury, the company can be held liable for the cost.
