Motorcycle Accident Injury

When a motorcyclist is hit by a car or a truck the results can be catastrophic since they don’t have the benefit of being surrounded by a steel frame, airbags, or other safety features. With little protection from the impact the rider may suffer life-threatening and catastrophic injuries. The aftermath of a motorcycle accident can be a distressing time, physically, emotionally and financially. Even worse, insurance companies often stereotype motorcycle riders as being reckless simply for being bikers. A motorcyclist with years of experience, obeying traffic laws, driving defensively and always staying on guard can still be involved in a serious motorcycle accident.

Careless drivers may not see a motorcyclist on the road until it is too late. When negligent or reckless driving results in a serious accident, the driver at fault must be held accountable. After a crash it is common practice for the insurance company to blame the motorcycle rider or to offer an insultingly low settlement amount to the victim.
