What Are the Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents?

Motorcycle accidents can occur for many reasons, but many are caused by the negligence of others on the road. When this happens, the injured biker can file a personal injury claim against the responsible party. In order to be successful in a personal injury claim, the injured biker must show that the other party was negligent in some way, and that this negligence was a direct cause of the accident.

Some of the most common causes of motorcycle accidents include:

  • Speeding
  • Drunk driving
  • Driver inattention
  • Failure to yield
  • Following too closely
  • Failure to signal
  • Illegal turns
  • Unsafe lane changes

When a driver engages in these or other careless actions, they can easily collide with a motorcyclist, causing serious injuries. Some of the most common injuries that result from motorcycle accidents include traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, and broken bones.

Many motorcycle accidents are caused by drivers who simply do not see the motorcyclist. This is often because they are not paying attention to the road, and are not looking out for motorcycles. In these cases, the driver can be held liable for the accident, and can be ordered to pay damages to the injured biker.

What Is the Helmet Law in Greensboro?

North Carolina has a specific helmet law that applies to motorcyclists. According to this law, all motorcyclists must wear helmets that meet the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. In addition to this, motorcyclists must also wear eye protection if their bike is not equipped with a windshield.

It is important to note that, even if you were not wearing a helmet at the time of the accident, you can still recover compensation from the negligent driver. However, you should be aware that the insurance company will likely try to argue that your failure to wear a helmet contributed to the severity of your injuries.

Does Greensboro Have Lane-Splitting Laws?

In North Carolina, lane splitting is illegal. Lane splitting occurs when a motorcyclist drives between two lanes of traffic that is moving in the same direction. This is extremely dangerous and can easily lead to an accident. If you are caught lane splitting, you can be charged with reckless driving.

How Much Is My Greensboro Motorcycle Accident Claim Worth?

One of the most common questions we are asked by our clients is how much their motorcycle accident claim is worth. This is a complex question that is difficult to answer without a thorough review of the facts of the case. However, you can rest assured that our attorneys will do everything we can to ensure you receive the maximum amount of compensation you are entitled to.

If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident in the Greensboro area, you may be entitled to the following damages:

  • Medical expenses
  • Lost wages
  • Loss of earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Loss of consortium
  • Property damage

It is important to note that, in order to recover these damages, you must prove that you suffered a loss as a result of the accident. Our attorneys can help you gather the evidence you need to prove your damages, and can also help you calculate the value of your claim.

Can I Still Recover Compensation If I Was Partially at Fault for the Accident?

In North Carolina, you can still recover compensation for your injuries even if you were partially at fault for the accident. However, your damages will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you were 10% at fault, your damages would be reduced by 10%. If you were more than 50% at fault, you will be barred from recovering any compensation.

Why Do I Need a Greensboro Motorcycle Accident Attorney?

Motorcycle accident claims can be complex, and it can be difficult to determine who is at fault for the accident. Insurance companies know this, and will often try to take advantage of injured bikers by offering them a lowball settlement. In order to protect your rights, you should speak to an attorney as soon as possible after a motorcycle accident.

We have the skills and resources to effectively represent you both in and out of the courtroom, and will do everything we can to ensure you receive the maximum amount of compensation you are entitled to.
