Is There an Increased Risk for Motorcyclists on the Road?

Motorcyclists are among some of the most vulnerable to other drivers on the road due to their size and exposure to the surrounding environment. In a car accident, the driver is surrounded by a cage of metal that may prevent them from flying outside and in the path of other vehicles. However, motorcyclists do not have that layer of protection and are often thrown from their vehicles and into objects or oncoming traffic. 

To inform about the severity of motorcycle accidents, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has provided the following statistics: 

  • There were 6,084 motorcyclist fatalities in 2021.
  • 2,294 fatally injured motorcyclists were not wearing helmets.
  • 59% of motorcyclist deaths in 2021 occurred during May-September.
  • Motorcyclist fatalities peaked in June 2021.

While motorcycles are smaller than most other motor vehicles, drivers must follow the rules and act responsibly on the road. If a driver does not look before they switch lanes and causes you to suffer severe injuries, you have the right to hold them accountable for your damages.

What Damages Can I Recover in a Motorcycle Accident Claim?

Recovering from a motorcycle accident can be challenging and time-consuming. Depending on the severity of your injuries, you may require extensive medical treatments, rehabilitation, and long-term care. Another factor to consider is how your injury affects your career and ability to perform daily tasks.

When your damages turn your life upside down, your lawyer will advocate on your behalf and calculate the compensation you deserve. Below are a few examples of potential recoverable compensation:

  • Pain and suffering
  • Past and future medical costs
  • Prescription medication expenses
  • Rehabilitation and physical therapy bills
  • Past and future lost income or wages
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Physical Impairment
  • Anxiety and depression
  • Loss of companionship
  • Loss of consortium
  • Wrongful death damages
  • Punitive damages

Understanding your current and future challenges is an integral part of a motorcycle accident lawyer’s job. Our team at the Kuzmich Law Firm, P.C. will fully account for your pain and will do everything in our power to collect the compensation necessary for you to have a smooth and successful recovery.
