Merely a week after a horrific bus accident that led to the death of six people on Highway 99 in Fresno, six of the survivors have decided to file a personal injury lawsuit against Greyhound and the drivers involved.  The lawsuit was filed by the plaintiffs this Wednesday in Sacramento by four adults and two children.

30 people reportedly survived the deadly bus accident.  At this time, the California Highway Patrol has not released its final report on what or who caused the accident.  However, attorneys for the plaintiffs say that Greyhound is responsible for making sure passengers get to their end destinations safely.

Lawyer for the plaintiffs, Steven Brady, told news sources, "There are reports that another vehicle had gone around the overturned SUV and safely able to avoid it.  Obviously the bus driver was driving at a speed that exceeded his physical ability to perceive, react, and avoid hitting the SUV."

The driver of the SUV, 28 year old Elsabeth Giorgis was also listed as a defendant on the lawsuit.  According to her attorney, Giorgis was driving in the slow lane the Greyhound bus clipped her, causing her to collide with the overturned SUV.  Her lawyer claims that Giorgis is being re-victimized after the accident and feels it is too soon for the plaintiffs to take legal action.
