Unlike standard automobiles,
motorcycles provide little protection to the
driver or passenger, requiring the drivers to
remain alert at all times and to receive
additional skill handling training to stay as
safe as possible. However, cyclists must also
carefully watch the movement of the vehicles
around them. Most accidents involving
motorcycles are caused by negligence or
failure to pay attention by the driver of the
automobile.
Primarily, accidents between
a motorcycle and a car occur at intersections.
Motorcycles can easily be in another driver’s
blind spot at intersections or on other
roadways. Both motorcyclists and motor vehicle
drivers should be overly cautious when sharing
the road. Any minor misjudgment or mistake can
result in a serious accident or fatality to a
motorcyclist.
The negligence of another
driver that is found to have contributed to a
motorcycle accident may require compensation
to you for your suffering. Depending on the
severity and impact of the motorcycle accident
and injuries on your life, you may receive
payment for:
- Medical bills;
- Lost wages;
- Disfigurement;
- Pain and suffering;
- Loss of quality of life.

damages for a motorcycle accident,
understanding the insurance business, the
complexities of the law and the rights of the
involved parties is critical. While we work to
