I was sad to hear that 22 people had to be taken to hospital following a bus crash close to Glasgow airport.

Early in the morning on the A726 Barnesford Road close to Glasgow Airport the bus crashed into a perimeter fence and ended up perched upright in a field. The accident is being investigated and a spokeswoman for Strathclyde Police said “the bus appears to have lost control”.

It must have been terrifying for everyone involved in the accident and I wish all those who were injured a speedy recovery.

Thankfully it appears none of the passengers or the driver of the bus where seriously injured.

My friends at Thompsons Solicitors deal with the victims of road traffic accidents everyday and see the impact injuries can have on a person’s day to day life and those of their families.

If you’ve been injured in a road traffic accident which wasn’t your fault in the last three years you should probably give Thompsons Solicitors a call to see if you could get compensation.  The call’s free and it’s no win no fee.
