Mopeds and electric scooters have become a popular choice for getting around—they’re fun, affordable, and a great way to beat city traffic. But despite their convenience, they come with serious risks. When accidents happen, the lack of protective features on these vehicles can leave riders with significant injuries.
If you’ve been hurt in a moped or electric scooter accident and believe someone else was at fault, Morgan & Morgan is here to help you recover the compensation you deserve. We’ll fight for you every step of the way.
Common Causes of Moped and Scooter Accidents
Accidents involving mopeds and scooters can happen for a variety of reasons. Here are some of the most common causes we’ve seen:
- Distracted Driving: Other drivers texting, eating, or being inattentive behind the wheel.
- Poor Visibility: Mopeds and scooters are harder for larger vehicles to see, especially at intersections or in bike lanes.
- Road Hazards: Potholes, uneven surfaces, and debris can cause dangerous conditions for riders.
- Impaired Drivers: Drivers under the influence of drugs or alcohol pose serious threats to all road users, especially moped and scooter riders.
- Tailgating: Following too closely can lead to rear-end collisions with vulnerable moped and scooter riders.
No matter the cause of your accident, our experienced attorneys are ready to build a strong case and hold the responsible parties accountable.
