Motorcycle accidents are among the most devastating types of traffic collisions. Unlike drivers in passenger vehicles, motorcyclists are not protected by seatbelts, airbags, or steel frames. As a result, riders are significantly more vulnerable to serious and life-altering injuries when an accident occurs.

In fact, motorcyclists are nearly 30 times more likely to be killed in a crash than occupants of cars. If you or a loved one has been injured in a motorcycle accident, you may be entitled to compensation—and you should not have to fight for it alone.

At Law Offices Of John Gray, our experienced personal injury attorneys help injured motorcyclists pursue justice and financial recovery after serious crashes.

Why Motorcycle Accidents Are So Dangerous

Motorcycles are smaller, lighter, and harder for other drivers to see. Even the most cautious rider can become a victim due to another driver’s negligence.

Common factors that lead to motorcycle accidents include:

• Distracted driving
• Failure to check blind spots
• Speeding
• Driving under the influence
• Unsafe lane changes
• Failure to yield

Because of the lack of physical protection, injuries from motorcycle crashes are often severe.

“But I Obeyed All the Laws” — You Can Still Have a Case

Many injured motorcyclists worry that insurance companies will blame them for the crash. The truth is, you can obey every traffic law and still be seriously injured due to another driver’s actions.

Defensive riding does not protect you from:

• A distracted driver looking at their phone
• A motorist who fails to see your bike
• A driver who violates traffic laws

If another driver’s negligence caused your accident, they may be legally responsible for your injuries, medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering.

Common Motorcycle Accident Injuries

Motorcycle crashes often result in catastrophic injuries, including:

• Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
• Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
• Broken bones and fractures
• Road rash and severe burns
• Internal organ damage
• Permanent disability

These injuries can require long-term medical treatment and significantly impact your ability to work and enjoy life.

Dealing With Insurance Companies After a Motorcycle Crash

Insurance companies often try to minimize motorcycle accident claims by:

• Blaming the rider
• Downplaying the severity of injuries
• Offering low settlements early
• Pressuring victims to settle quickly

Accepting an early settlement can leave you without adequate compensation for future medical care or ongoing pain. Never settle with an insurance company before speaking with an attorney.
