Macon, GA Motorcycle Accidents
With its scenic beauty and favorable climate, Georgia is a mecca for motorcyclists. Riding in the state has been safer as well, with recent statistics showing motorcycle fatalities down overall. But even with good weather and safer riding, motorcycling carries inherent risks.
The United States had 4,985 motorcyclist deaths due to accidents in 2018, including 154 in Georgia alone. Motorcycle accidents can be devastating for survivors as well, leaving them with debilitating injuries. To make matters worse, sometimes accident victims must deal with unscrupulous insurance companies underpaying or denying their legitimate claims.
Motorcycle accident victims should spend their time healing, not fighting insurance companies. If you believe your accident was caused by negligence or if you have been wrongly denied a claim, contact our Morgan & Morgan branch in Macon. We’ll be glad to look into it.

Motorcycle Injuries
Unlike other motorists, motorcyclists do not have airbags, bumpers, or other safety features found in cars and trucks. As a result, accident survivors can face many severe injuries, including:
- Traumatic brain injury
- Concussions
- Neck injury
- Broken bones
- Spinal cord injury
- Lacerations
- Disfigurement
- Burns
Staying Safe on Motorcycles
As a motorcyclist, your number one defense against injury is wearing a helmet. The state of Georgia estimates helmets saved 72 lives in 2017 and 96 the year before. It’s also the law: Georgia has a universal helmet law, so anyone who rides must wear one or face penalties. Wearing protective jackets, boots, and pants can also help shield your body from injury.
Also, never drink and ride. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has found that 25% of motorcycle riders in fatal accidents were alcohol-impaired — the highest percentage of all motor vehicle operators. Alcohol also played a factor in 37% of single vehicle accidents where a motorcyclist was killed.
