Car Accidents Involving Motorcycles

    ORLANDO, FL, December 23, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Some motorcycle accidents are caused by biker error. Some are caused by factors such as inclement weather, vehicle failures, and roadway hazards. But according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, over 70 percent of motorcycle accidents are caused by the drivers of cars and trucks.

When you are injured or a loved one is killed in a motorcycle accident caused by a larger vehicle, you have every right to hold the negligent driver accountable for their actions. Making sure you choose an experienced car accident attorney is the first step in ensuring you are treated fairly and provided the full compensation you deserve.

Motorcycle Accident Injuries

Common motorcycle accident injuries include:
- Head and brain injuries
- Neck and back injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
- Amputations
- Disfigurement
- Death

When a motorcycle accident includes impact both with another vehicle and the road, the chance of these catastrophic personal injuries increases substantially.

Sadly, even with protective gear such as helmets, there is no guarantee against serious injury in a motorcycle accident. Sadder still, a cultural bias exists against bikers that can make getting justice incredibly difficult.

You Need an Attorney

Your car accident attorney will know what needs to be done to protect your rights. A good attorney will investigate your accident, looking into all possible causes to identify the negligent party. Once this has been established, he can build a rock solid case, protect you against greedy insurance companies, and fight for every penny you are due.

Don't try to take the system on alone. Even if your accident seems black and white there is almost always something insurance companies will use to cheat you out of what you are due.

Only a car accident attorney can take your case as far as necessary to get you maximum compensation.
