Motorcycle Accident Injuries
Injuries due to motorcycle accidents can be severe, as motorcyclists don’t have the protection of crumple zones, airbags, bumpers, and other safety features found in cars and trucks. Motorcyclists are often flung from their bikes, crushed between vehicles and objects, and hurt in other dramatic and costly ways.
A motorcycle accident and the subsequent injuries and disfigurement can also cause mental anguish, anxiety, and trauma for the victim.
Among the most common injuries that occur due to a motorcycle accident are:
- Broken and fractured bones;
- Spinal cord injuries;
- Disfigurement;
- Brain damage;
- Neck injury; and
- Burns.
Head injuries are especially common and devastating for motorcyclists who do not wear helmets. 41 percent of motorcyclists who died in 2010 were not wearing a helmet, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. And, in fact, traumatic brain injury is the leading cause of motorcycle crash death.
Wrongful Death
If the accident was severe enough to cause the death of a motorcyclist, our motorcycle accident attorneys can help the family of the victim file a wrongful death suit against the motorist responsible for the crash. This suit may pursue compensation for loss of income, final expenses, and mental anguish.
