When a School Bus Accident occurs, it can be a tragic and devastating event. New Mexico School Bus Accident victims may suffer from a wide range of injuries including serious burns, fractures, lacerations, bruising, internal injuries, head injuries, and back and neck injuries. Some of these injuries may result in lifelong disabilities or even death for school bus accident victims in New Mexico. It is possible that these injuries could be less serious or avoided altogether if children were protected by safety belts while riding on School Buses. Although some states have passed legislation requiring seat belts on new School Buses, there are opponents of School Bus seat belt laws who argue that seat belts may cause more harm than good by causing internal injuries and making it more difficult to extract children from overturned buses.
