Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcycle accidents can be especially devastating, given the fact that a motorcycle driver or rider has no seatbelt or large vehicle to protect them. Motorcyclists are approximately 28 times more frequently killed in a traffic crash compared to occupants of passenger cars.

Many times, other drivers on the road do not pay enough attention to motorcyclists. This is why vigilance is crucial when riding. If you’ve been injured in a motorcycle accident through someone else’s fault, Florida law entitles you to compensation. The attorneys at McCulloch Law, P.A. are here to help.

Protect Yourself: Wear a Helmet

The number one precaution you can take as a motorcyclist is wearing a helmet. It impacts your legal case and, more importantly, your survival. Motorcycle helmets reduce the risk of head injury by 69% and the risk of death by 42%. Always wear a DOT-approved helmet whenever you ride.

What To Do After a Motorcycle Accident

• Call the police immediately and request a police report.
• Ensure the officer documents the driver’s license and insurance information.
• Photograph the scene, your motorcycle, and the at-fault driver’s vehicle to preserve critical evidence.
• Seek medical treatment promptly to both treat and document your injuries.
• Do not give statements to insurance companies without speaking to an attorney.
