There is some popular wisdom holding that any time an MTA bus makes contact with another object [e.g. another car, another bus, a sign, a light pole, or practically anything else] then the passengers on that bus are entitled to a financial recovery.  Of course, that's not the law. Like any other Baltimore injury or accident claim, a plaintiff must prove that they were, in fact, injured, and that they sustained damages, to be entitled to any type of recovery.  Not all Baltimore injury and accident lawyers handle "bus accident" claims, and others say they handle only "serious bus accident" claims- although that might be a difficult concept to define.Ask your Baltimore injury and accident lawyer about their experience in prosecuting and trying bus accident case.

Baltimore personal injury lawyers, and any motorists, are well versed in the rule that a vehicle must remain to the right of the center-line of a highway.

At least one Baltimore personal injury lawyer has successfully argued that this rule is not inflexible. In  Longenecker v. Zanghi, 2 A.2d 20, the court determined that where there is a narrow road, and a wide truck otherwise being operated properly, the "keep to the right" rule does not apply.
