Motorcycle Accidents

In 2011 alone there were nearly 4,000 motorcycle accidents in the state of Ohio. Nearly 200 of the motorcycle accidents result in death, making this type of roadway accident very serious.

A lot of the accidents involving motorcycles are not caused by the cyclist, but instead another vehicle on the roadway.Other drivers may not see the cyclist on the roadway, or even fail to keep a safe distance when passing in the lanes of the roadway.

Impact of an Accident

When a serious accident such as this occurs and severely injures someone, it not only changes their life, but it also changes the lives of their loved ones, friends, and support system. In some cases, the victims do not recover from their injuries and die as a result of driver’s negligence.

Motorcyclists that have been involved in accidents face an uncertain future and deserve compensation for the pain and suffering they’ve undergone. If another driver caused the motorcycle accident, the cyclist may pursue damages.

In a motorcycle accident, both the driver and the passenger can file a claim if injured. The at-fault driver that caused the accident would be subject to legal claims from anyone that was injured in the accident.

If the at-fault driver is the driver of the motorcycle, the cyclist’s passenger can file a claim against them if injured while on the back of the motorcycle. No matter what the scenario, a negligent driver is responsible for the pain and suffering they may cause.

Family members can also file claims if their loved one is killed in a motorcycle accident. A wrongful death claim can be made against the at-fault driver.

The injuries that can occur in a motorcycle accident include the following:

  • Brain damage
