Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcycle accidents can happen when either drivers or motorcycle riders are:

• Drunk
• Drowsy
• Speed 
• Distraction
• Not following road rules

Any time someone makes a careless or unsafe decision while driving, this can lead to a motorcycle crash.  Some of the most common mistakes which are made involve drivers changing lanes without looking to see if a motorcycle is in their path, or drivers making turns without checking to see if the road is clear first, failing to yield the right-of-way to motorcycle riders. Drivers failing to see motorcyclists is so common that there is actually a safety campaign called Look Twice, Save a Lifeaimed at the prevention of motorcycle collisions.

Proving the Cause 

If you get into a motorcycle accident, you can recover compensation for the crash if you can prove another driver was the caused the accident. You will need to prove negligence on the part of the person at fault. And that the negligence of the other driver was the reason why the accident happened. Brandon L. Lettunich, Attorney at Law, can help with an investigation and can assist in holding the negligent person accountable for your injuries from the motorcycle accident.  Contact us!
