@frugaltraveler hey you don't know me but these tweets showed up in my timeline. I was in a megabus wreck in 2010 and got reimbursed well... - View other replies

@frugaltraveler ...over that $250 amount. I got full cost of laptop + other damages

@frugaltraveler I'm guessing that there will be lawyers waiting for when the@megabus bus arrives. -
@frugaltraveler I think this is for them loosing luggage in transit, not actually due to the bus blowing up... can go after their insurance -
@frugaltraveler generally speaking, liability waivers are void insofar as they purport to limit damages for willful/gross negligence -
@frugaltraveler hooooly shit. I feel so bad for that college kid w/ the textbooks, almost wanna know who they are so I can send $$ D: -

@frugaltraveler@paulisci Binding arbitration, $400 entry fee for each party. No visibility of prior cases.pic.twitter.com/u7rgGWrbbQ

@ZiadFazel@frugaltraveler@paulisci "other than[...]claims arising from loss, damage or injury to persons and property transported..." -
@tet3 Good eye. Missed that on my phone screen.@frugaltraveler@paulisci

@frugaltraveler I can not imagine restricting liability like this would be legal in the EU. Passenger rights are protected here. -
@frugaltraveler Thank you for sharing some of the personal stories. -
@frugaltraveler TOC has no bearing on negligence cases. If this is due to more maintenance or company negligence they will need to pay -
@frugaltraveler these tweets will help -
@frugaltraveler that doesn't seem right -
@frugaltraveler regular renters or homeowners insurance would cover the out of pocket less your deductible for fire loss. -
@frugaltraveler I'll be honest; This puts a BIG question mark over#safety of@StagecoachGroup operations here in UK too. :-/#ThinkIllWalk -
@frugaltraveler As we know, most of those TOC's aren't worth the pixels they're displayed on. You can easily get all your stuff paid for. -
@frugaltraveler Unenforcable in many states, as there was no negotiation and/or as a mater of policy. Worth contacting a lawyer
