How Motorcycle Accidents Happen
According to studies by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, nearly 75% of all motorcycle accidents, and 50% of accidents with fatalities, involve two vehicles. The second motor vehicle is usually a car or passenger vehicle, and the motorcyclist almost always fares worse.
The most common causes of motorcycle accidents:
- Inexperienced riders or drivers
- Speeding
- Alcohol & drugs
- Distractions (texting, talking on a cell phone, eating)
- Weaving in and out of traffic or lane-splitting
- Not using a turn signal or ignoring the right of way
- Driving on the wrong side of the road
- Tailgating
- Poor weather conditions
- Unexpected obstacles
- Under-cornering or over-braking
- Vehicle defects
- Road defects (potholes, broken asphalt)
- Harassment and road rage
- Failing to wear protective gear (helmet, leather)
The High Cost of Motorcycle Accidents
In most cases, it is the front of the motorcycle that is hit. This point of impact can result in road rash, broken bones, more serious injuries, and fatal motorcycle accident injuries. If you have suffered severe injuries as a motorcycle accident victim, you may already have a good idea of its cost, including physical and emotional pain, expensive medical bills, lost wages, and property damage.
Identifying every potential factor in an accident is important in determining who is the at-fault driver, what percent each driver is at fault, and who is financially responsible.
Fault can be a complex question on which you, the other motorist, police and emergency responders, and insurance companies do not agree. It is even further complicated if there are equipment failures, poor road conditions, public vehicles, or obstacles involved.
A personal injury attorney can help prepare your strongest arguments and may even retain a private investigator to help build your case. But you must act quickly. The insurance companies will want to settle as quickly as they can. They will not want to wait to discover that you have long-term medical care needs or disability issues that can impact your life and earning capacity. To them, it’s just business. To you, it is your future. Do not agree to any settlement without seeking the legal representation of a personal injury lawyer or motorcycle accident lawyer.

- Understand your legal rights, options, and statute of limitations in a motorcycle accident claim
- Investigate the accident scene to support your personal injury case
- Challenge the police report or accident report’s findings
- Navigate the complexities of insurance policies and insurance claims
