One type of motor vehicle accident that sometimes flies under the radar is bus accidents. Buses -- whether they are privately operated or function as a part of city or state transit -- pose a serious threat to smaller vehicles out on the road. It is difficult for the drivers to see out of them (or, at least, more difficult than a common car); they are larger and more powerful; and when they are involved in an accident, usually the other vehicles involved in the crash suffer the brunt of the impact.
