What are the most common causes of motorcycle accidents in Queens?
Motorcycle accidents are generally the result of negligence. Many other motorists fail to show motorcyclists the respect they deserve, and oftentimes, this results in very serious accidents. Motorcyclists are far more vulnerable to their surroundings than virtually all others on the road, and unfortunately, they sustain some of the worst injuries after being involved in an accident. Some of the most common causes and types of motorcycle accidents are as follows:
- Dooring accidents
- Failing to look before changing lanes or merging
- Speeding
- Driving while intoxicated
- Distracted driving
- Accidents at stop signs
- Running motorcyclists off the road
All of these accidents and forms of negligence can result in motorcyclists sustaining serious, sometimes permanent injuries, and if you are a motorcycle accident victim, our firm is here to help you in any way we can.
