Toronto’s public transportation system, the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC), operates under the Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule (SABS), which is a ‘no-fault’ insurance system. This means that if you were injured while in a TTC vehicle accident, regardless of who is at fault, you are entitled to accident benefits under SABS. Ontario law with respect to motor vehicle accidents also allows a victim to receive both accident benefits, and to sue for damages (for economic loss, as well as pain and suffering) under certain conditions.
This is true for drivers, passengers and pedestrians who have been injured in a TTC vehicle accident.
Determining just which benefits you are entitled to and how much injury compensation you deserve can be a complicated process. We can offer you a free legal consultation to evaluate your case and help you obtain the medical care and compensation you deserve for your TTC injury. Contact us without obligation to find out how to start your TTC injury claim in Toronto and all of Ontario.
Even if you weren’t driving your car at the time of the accident, if you have car insurance you may be required to file your claim with your own insurance company, rather than the TTC. If there was another driver involved in the accident, then you might be required to file your claim with their insurance company. Determining which insurance company is liable in a TTC accident is not always straight-forward.
Our legal team of TTC Accident Lawyers can offer you a free consultation on your case, and help you get your claim processed fast and correctly, ensuring you start receiving the benefits you are entitled to right away.
Non-vehicular accidents
If you were injured on TTC property, but the accident did not involve a TTC vehicle, you may still be entitled to sue for damages if the accident was a result of negligence. Depending on your injuries and the circumstances of your case, you can be compensated for lost wages, medical bills, and pain and suffering.
Understanding which laws apply to your situation can be very complicated in these cases – sometimes the law might determine that an accident is actually a motor vehicle accident, even if a vehicle doesn’t seem to be a direct cause of the TTC injury.
