Motorcycle Accident Injuries

While any type of motor vehicle accident can be dangerous, motorcycles are especially vulnerable in a collision because they aren’t equipped with airbags, doors, roofs, seat belts or other safety features. Because of this lack of external protection, motorcycle accidents often result in more severe injuries than car accidents, types of injuries that can often end careers and change lives forever, including:

Brain injuries or brain damage
Head injuries
Neck injuries
Spinal cord injuries
Back injuries
Burn injuries
Internal injuries
Paralysis
Fractured or broken bones
Torn ligaments
Amputations
Emotional distress

Motorcycle Accident Causes

Motorcycle accidents happen for a variety of reasons, but one of the leading factors is that other drivers fail to see or pay sufficient attention to bikers sharing their space on the road. Common causes of motorcycle accidents include:

Motorcycles are harder to see for drivers of cars, SUVs, and trucks.
Motorcycles can be easily side swiped.
Drivers of other vehicles don’t acknowledge the motorcyclist or obey common ‘rules of the road’ such as maintaining proper distances or signaling.
Motorcycles are more susceptible to road hazards and dangerous weather conditions.
Motorcycles require more skill to drive.
Motorcycles are more likely to become unstable or “wobbly” at higher speeds.
Ejection from the motorcycle is a common result of impact.
If a motorcycle comes to a sudden stop and the rider or passenger is ejected, they will forcibly strike objects in their path as well as ultimately hitting the ground.

Although motorcycle accidents are often caused by another driver, juries tend to be prejudiced against the motorcyclist, assuming that all those who ride motorcycles are reckless or speeding. As a result, obtaining fair compensation for your injuries can be challenging. At Rosen and Rosen, our motorcycle accident lawyers will thoroughly investigate your accident, compile all your medical records, interview witnesses and, when required, consult with experts to prepare a sophisticated and persuasive argument to be used both in and out of the courtroom.
