Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcycle enthusiasts, as well as casual riders take many proactive steps to protect themselves from the hazards of the road and other drivers. Bikers often wear helmets, protective eyewear, reflective clothing, leather jackets, and chaps—even in the heat. Despite the many efforts on the part of bikers to keep themselves safe, negligent drivers and dangerous roads can cause serious injury. This is often because of visibility factors or road defects. The Law Offices of Lawrence M. Knapp is familiar with the various motorcycle accident causes. We understand how these accidents happen, and we understand how to obtain maximum compensation on behalf of injured motorcyclists.

Our familiarity with the common causes of motorcycle accidents provides our clients with a high level of client service. Working with accident reconstruction experts when appropriate, we are able to piece together the cause of the accident. We see the same types of accidents recurring and are familiar with how these accidents occur. We use this knowledge to vigorously pursue compensation for our injured clients. Causes of motorcycle accidents include the following.

• Visibility - Drivers of tractor trailers, trucks, cars, and other vehicles claim they "did not see" the cyclist.
• Road defects - Due to improper maintenance or because of road construction, road defects can include cracks in the road, holes, and dangerous gravel.
• Road construction - Particularly on I-99, road construction can cause serious injury to motorcyclists due to unmarked lane changes, soft patches, unmarked dips and bumps, and other dangerous conditions.
