Riding your “scoot” with the wind in your face, a heightened sense of speed, the rumble of your engine and the ground racing by under your feet is a thrill like no other.
What makes motorcycling so exciting also makes it very dangerous. Unlike a car, when riding a motorcycle, you have little or no protection. Your helmet, bike gear and your attention to safe driving aren’t always enough to protect you from a negligent car or truck driver, defects in the road or even a blown tire. Your chances of wiping out with a serious injury or death are vastly increased, when you have motorcycle accident.
Whether you ride a motorcycle for fun or for economical transportation, your safety is an issue. Statistics show three fourths of motorcycle accidents involve another vehicle. And not only that, studies show two thirds of the time the driver of the other vehicle was at fault.
When you have been injured in a motorcycle accident, you need a lawyer with expertise in motorcycle issues to evaluate your case and help protect your rights under the law.
