Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists know the risks of sharing the road with other motorists and take extra precautions to avoid a motorcycle accident. Sadly, even when riders make sure all safety measures are in place, they cannot prevent the actions of a negligent car or truck driver. The motorcycle accident attorneys at The Barnes Firm have found that the most common causes of motorcycle accidents are:

  • Distracted driving
  • Left turn accidents
  • Speeding
  • Driving under the influence
  • Reckless driving
  • Tailgating

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), a motorcyclist is 26 times more likely to die in a traffic collision and five times more likely to be injured in a traffic collision.
