Motorcycle Accidents 

A recent study found that drivers of cars and trucks, not motorcyclists, are the cause of most motorcycle accidents involving more than just the bike. Anyone involved in a motorcycle accident should have their investigative team evaluate all aspects surrounding the collision. This includes reviewing:   

  • Blind spots on the vehicle 
  • Video from office building on this corner 
  • All Eyewitness accounts of the accident 
  • Police accident report 
  • Any testing of the driver for drugs and alcohol 
  • Any history of driver with drugs and alcohol 
  • Phone and texting records of the driver 
  • Accident history on this road 
  • Evaluation if road is striped per code 
  • Inspection of road conditions and signage 

Car drivers always have a duty to always exercise safety precautions to avoid hitting motorcyclists.
