Motorcycle Accident & Injury Legal Representation

Motorcycle riders know all too well that cars often drive recklessly or negligently around them. Though motorcycles may be smaller, they still have equal rights on the road and should be given the proper following distance and attention that other cars receive. Unfortunately, many drivers do not give full attention to the road, resulting in irresponsible driving that can often lead to accidents.

Common Motorcycle Accidents 

The most common types of motorcycle accidents include the following:

  • Blind spot collision
  • Left-turn accidents
  • Motorcycle defect accidents
  • Rear-end collision
  • DUI accidents

Most motorcycle crashes involve other vehicles and, as statistics prove:

  • 78% of motorcycle accidents are head-on collisions
  • 42% of motorcycle accidents with other cars occur when the car is turning left
  • 5% of motorcycle accidents are rear-end crashes

Obstructions on the roads or poorly designed highways are also common reasons for motorcycle accidents. Determining who is at fault for your accident can be challenging. You may need an attorney on your side to help you with the investigation process. Let Mr. Lamar help you hold the responsible party accountable for their actions through a personal injury claim.

When it comes to travel, there is nothing quite like the exhilaration of cruising on the open road with a motorcycle. What motorcycles lack in safety, they make up in fuel efficiency, agility, and manoeuvrability. But unfortunately, motorcycles can still be dangerous, especially in the company of other drivers who fail to keep an eye out for motorcyclists.
