School Bus Safety at Railroad Crossings: New Law

A new law took effect in Georgia on January 1, 2009, concerning school bus safety around railroad crossings.  Under the new law, local school districts must inform the state Department of Transportation of any rail crossings (on school bus routes) that lack active warning devices such as lights, warning bells, or automated control gates.  The DOT will then upgrade the railroad crossings listed by the school districts by installing the proper devices.  Until such upgrades are complete, the law requires school districts to make attempts to reroute buses in such a way that would minimize the number of routes that cross the dangerous railroad tracks.

Our law firm handles bus accidents and truck accident cases.  If you have been injured in an accident and have questions for an experienced lawyer, please feel free to call us at 770-577-3020.  We will answer your questions for free.
