COMMON CAUSES
Many motorcycle riders, like bicyclists, suffer serious or fatal injuries simply because drivers of other vehicles do not see them. Other times the cause can be attributed to speeding or simply lacking the proper skill. At Bradley Johnson Attorneys our Seattle personal injury lawyers have handled numerous motorcycle lawsuits, and understand the physics of a motorcycle accident. Our legal team works with some of the best crash investigators and accident reconstruction experts to determine responsibility and ensure that your side is being heard.
Motorcycle riders should be aware of the following common causes of motorcycle crashes:
- Single Bike Accidents - Although law enforcement would like to indicate that crashes of this kind are likely the fault of the rider, much of the time road debris and layout can be the cause. These cases are difficult, and you must seek the advice of a Seattle injury attorney before you proceed.
- Chains and Ropes across Trails - Motorcyclists who "off road" should be aware of these, however property owners can be held liable for an accident caused by a chain or rope.
- Rear End Collisions
- U-Turns
- Car Doors Opening Unexpectedly
Again, motorcycles are small vehicles that move fast. Drivers can lose sight of them quickly and a serious accident can occur from a small bump or hit. Only a qualified Seattle injury attorney will be able to properly determine fault in a situation like this. Our Seattle personal injury lawyers have the resources and the know-how to put you in the best position to get the best possible settlement in your accident lawsuit.
