A Tragic Bus Tour is a Critical Safety Reminder




LA accident lawyer Cameron Yadidi Brock has found success aiding clients with a number of personal injury cases. While he's well known as a seasoned motorcycle accident lawyer, he's equally adept in handling cases involving automobile collisions and even wrongful death. That's why Mr. Brock was so deeply saddened by the recent tragic story regarding a fatality on a L.A. tour bus.


Four friends were on the double-decker bus when one of them, 16-year-old boy Mason Zisette, struck his head on an overpass and died. The Channel 4 NBC affiliate in Southern California reports that the double-decker bus was chartered by Starline Tours for a private birthday party when the incident occurred on the 405 Freeway near the Arbor Vitae Street overpass, according to CHP Officer Edgar Figueroa.

The story is undoubtedly tragic, but it is especially so because it could have so easily been prevented. That's because the the boy's friends assert that they had no been given any safety instructions before boarding the bus. "When the police came, they go 'were you guys wearing seat belts?' We were like - 'seat belts?' We looked down, we didn't even know there were seat belts," said Ryan Ramey, one of the boys.

"The seats belts were literally buried under the seats," confirmed Gage Stroman, another boy in the group.

For the team at the Law Offices of Burg & Brock, Inc., hearing about preventable auto, motorcycle or even swimming pool accidents is always deeply upsetting. Yet, they are exceptionally proud to have dedicated their lives to aiding those injury victims that need help the most.
