Motorcycle Collisions
Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcyclists and their passengers have only their helmets and protective clothing to protect them from the impact of colliding with a truck, a bus, a car, an SUV, or a fixed object, such as a wall, a concrete barricade, or the ground. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that there were 4,810 motorcycle deaths in 2006, and many other motorcyclists and their passengers were seriously injured.

Motorcycle Injuries
Although motorcycle riders have the same exact rights on the road that other motorists do, many drivers forget to look out for these smaller vehicles. Many motorcycle injuries and deaths happen because a negligent motorist was speeding, driver under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or failed to check his or her blind spot, yield the right of way, or stop at a red light.
There are too many motorcyclists that end up with serious burn injuries, broken bones, permanent disfigurement, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, severe nerve damage, or are killed when they are thrown off their motorcycles and onto other motor vehicles, oncoming traffic, or fixed objects. The medical and recovery costs to treat motorcycle accident injuries can be astronomical, and often, an injured person’s insurance plan will not cover the bulk of the costs for surgeries, hospital stays, and rehabilitation services.
