Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents in Orange County, CA
Because motorcycles are smaller and faster than passenger vehicles, they face more significant risks in an auto collision. Not every motorcycle accident is due to driver negligence, but car and truck drivers often fail to see motorcyclists.
Negligent drivers cause motorcycle collisions in the following ways:
- Failing to look for lane-splitting riders
- Neglecting to look or signal before changing lanes
- Failing to yield the right of way
- Running stop signs or red lights
- Speeding or driving aggressively
- Driving while using a mobile device
- Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
- Driving while drowsy
Common Motorcycle Collision Injuries
Motorcycles provide riders with a thrilling driving experience, but the same features that make motorcycle riding a popular hobby also leave riders vulnerable to severe injuries in collisions. With no frames, seat belts, or airbags, motorcycles don't provide the same protection as passenger vehicles, and motorcycle crashes often involve more severe injuries.
According to the California Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS), a recent year saw 1,100 motorcycle accident injuries in Orange County, beaten only by Los Angeles County and San Diego County. Common motorcycle injuries include:
- Road rash
- Broken bones
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Internal damage to organs
- Burn injuries
The SWITRS says that 38 riders were killed in Orange County motorcycle accidents in a single year. If you lost a loved one to a motorcycle accident that a negligent driver caused, you could pursue compensation through a wrongful death claim. Contact my office to learn more about motorcycle fatality lawsuits and discuss your case.
Whether you suffered road rash or a permanent injury in a motorcycle collision, you deserve to pursue compensation through a motorcycle accident injury claim. If your accident occurred because of another driver's negligence, call me to learn about your rights because I personally respond to every legal inquiry.
Compensation in a Motorcycle Accident Injury Case
I can help you pursue fair compensation in your personal injury claim. You will receive tenacious representation to help you seek the following motorcycle accident damages from the negligent driver's insurance company:
- Medical expenses: Injured motorcycle riders may contend with exorbitant medical bills following treatment. These expenses add up quickly with the high costs of hospital visits, ambulance fees, surgeries, and continued medical care like physical therapy.
- Lost income and earning potential: Catastrophic injuries like a spinal cord injury or traumatic brain damage may leave an injured motorcyclist unable to work during treatment or to return to work after, resulting in lost wages in the present and future.
- Property damage: The at-fault driver may also be liable for the costs of repairing or replacing the motorcycle damaged in the accident.
- Pain and suffering: Many motorcycle accident victims contend with physical pain and emotional impacts long after the crash. Negligent drivers may be responsible for compensating related costs, such as therapy bills.
Assigning Fault in California: Comparative Negligence
In California, drivers often share fault in traffic accidents. The state uses the principle of comparative negligence to determine which party is most liable by assigning a percentage of blame to each party. For example, the court may find one party 60% liable and the other 40%. In this case, the first party would be responsible for paying damages minus the other party's 40%.
If you've been in an Orange County motorcycle accident, I can represent you during the filing, negotiation, settlement, and trial process. My expertise will give you the best chance of securing the maximum compensation in your case.
The bottom line is - Motorcycle injuries cause long-term effects for victims, who deserve to hold the negligent driver responsible.
