Common Factors in Motorcycle Accidents

There is nothing that can quite compare to the exhilarating feeling of cruising down the highway on a motorcycle. The focus that it requires to safely and smoothly operate a motorcycle can really put a rider in a particular frame of mind. However, the dangers of riding a motorcycle also cannot be denied. The unfortunate truth is that many drivers of passenger cars do not give motorcyclists the proper distance and space to ride safely. Motorcyclists can be put at great risk if cars are not aware of their presence.

If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident there may be more people who contributed to your injury than you know. Even single-vehicle accidents can be the result of dangerous contributing factors that arise from another person’s negligence. Please contact the Iowa motorcycle injury lawyers at LaMarca Law Group, P.C. by calling (515) 705-0233 for more information on your possible case.

Common Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcycle accidents can occur at any time in a number of different circumstances, but high-traffic situations and roadway defects are particularly dangerous for motorcyclists. Many motorcycle accidents occur when a passenger car violates a motorcyclist’s right-of-way or encroaches into his or her lane.

These types of multiple-vehicle accidents can leave a motorcyclist vulnerable to injury because of their direct physical contact with the road and another vehicle. Also, objects in the roadway can be a major danger to motorcyclists. Whether it is pooled water or a pothole, a roadway defect can cause serious damage to a rider’s motorcycle and can potentially lead to an accident, as well.

Motorcyclists are often put in dangerous situations by other drivers and those in charge of maintaining roadways. It is crucial that motorcyclists are treated with respect in order to help provide a safer environment for everyone on the road.
