How Serious Motorcycle Accidents Occur
Motorcyclists are often perceived as reckless and a danger to other motorists. However, many motorcycle accidents are the result of negligence or distracted driving on the part of automobile drivers. Because of the smaller size and vulnerable nature of motorcycles, riders can sustain severe injuries when a collision occurs. Some common situations that lead to accidents include:
- Left-hand turns – A large percentage of motorcycle accidents occur when a car makes a left turn at an intersection and strikes an oncoming motorcyclist.
- Hazardous road conditions – Things like potholes, uneven roads, and debris may not pose a threat to cars, but can be disastrous for motorcycles.
- Lane changes – When a driver changes lanes without seeing a motorcyclist, they can either strike them or run them off the road.
- Distracted drivers – It only takes a second of distraction for an automobile driver to cause either a rear-end or head-on collision with a motorcycle.
If you’ve been injured in an accident and feel the other driver was negligent, you need to protect your rights. The carelessness of another motorist shouldn’t lead to financial hardships and physical disability. At Anzellotti, Sperling, Pazol & Small, we’ll determine how much you should fight for and develop the best plan for seeking compensation.
Protecting Your Rights After a Ohio Motorcycle Accident
Many victims of motorcycle accidents suffer from permanent disability and disfigurement. This could even include mental disability due to traumatic brain injury. These are serious issues that could make it impossible to work or even perform common, day-to-day activities. For families, this could be devastating. Loss of income, emotional grief and never-ending medical bills can take away all the enjoyment of living.
Our legal team understands the hardships individuals and families must deal with after an accident. We’ll do everything in our power to prove that negligence of the other driver was to blame for the accident. Depending on your case, our attorneys will either negotiate for a proper settlement or fight for your rights in court. We’ll also protect you from insurance companies trying to pressure you into accepting a low settlement.
