Are motorcyclists usually at fault?

Are motorcyclists usually at fault?

This may surprise a lot of people, but not us at The Motorcycle Lawyer Network. We already know that North Carolina motorcyclists are NOT usually at fault in motorcycle accidents. By far, the most common cause of motorcycle accidents is reckless passenger vehicle driving. Car drivers are at less risk in a motorcycle accident, and the effects on motorcyclists can be traumatic or life-threatening. Disputes often center around the right of way, with car drivers oftentimes unaware of motorcyclists.

 

These are the most common examples of motorcycle accidents involving passenger vehicles:

Left-turn accidents.

Distracted drivers.

Door-opening into a lane.

Unsafe or reckless lane changes.

Brake-checking.

Failure to yield.

 

Left-turn accidents account for nearly 50% of all motorcycle collisions. These happen at intersections where motorcycle riders have the right of way and a vehicle turns left into a motorcyclist’s lane. 

 

In addition to these listed causes, a motorcycle crash is many times the result of poor maintenance of roadways or unclear road signage. 

 

We at The Motorcycle Lawyer Network are also well aware of the bias motorcyclists face after an accident. Some of the more common motorcycle biases we see at trial include:

 

A belief that riders are thrill-seekers or “daredevils.”

The idea that motorcycle riders are reckless, always speeding and dangerous on the roads.

The offensive assertion that riders don’t appreciate the potential danger involved in driving a motorcycle.

 

The fact is, motorcycle drivers are just like other drivers, who operate their vehicles with care. The key to combating jury bias is to educate jurors by dispelling myths against riders. When done properly, this empowers the jury to judge the case fairly and accurately. Further, we are skilled trial attorneys, adept at selecting jurors who will be fair and open to the elimination of any biases they may carry.

 

We’ve been fighting motorcycle injustice for over 25 years and we continue to win millions for our clients. If you find yourself dealing with the devastating effects of a motorcycle accident, do not try to go it alone and do it yourself. Call and get a free case evaluation and let the specialized motorcycle lawyers at The Motorcycle Lawyer Network do the hard work for you.

 

Our No-Win-No-Fee Promise means there is never a fee unless we collect money damages for you.
