    Northfield Township Bus Truck Accident Hurts Amish

    A Northfield Township bus accident has resulted in minor injuries for at least 14 members of a Mount Pleasant Amish church.  The accident occurred when a tour bus was rear-ended by a semi tractor-trailer on U.S. 23 near Barker Road north of Ann Arbor.  More than 20 people were crammed in the 13-passenger tour bus.  The 14 were taken to the University of Michigan Hospital, but 8 people refused treatment for minor injuries.

    This is a pretty alarming tragedy and I am sorry it happened.  Although many people were injured, it sounds like their injuries were relatively minor.  This is very fortunate for a couple of reasons.  First, accidents involving semi-trucks tend to be very bad accidents.  Second, buses are usually not equipped with seatbelts and other safety features now standard in cars.  A bus-truck combination accident has the potential to be a very serious accident but fortunately it sounds like no one was critically injured in this accident.

Testimonials

The insurance company refused to pay my benefits. Mr. Buckfire filed a lawsuit against them and made them pay every penny that they owed... Every time I see my doctor, I thank her again for the referral to Buckfire & Buckfire.

Because of his efforts, we proved that the other driver was at fault and the driver's insurance company paid a significant settlement for our injury claims... Hiring his firm to represent my son and myself was the best decision I could have possibly made. Many thanks for the great work.

My husband died when a truck left the roadway and struck him. He was off the shoulder of the roadway helping another motorist pull his car out of a snow bank The work that they did helped me settle my Michigan wrongful death case for $1,600,000.00. Their knowledge of law was second to none and they hired the best experts to prove my case.
