How motorcycle accidents happen

A Detroit motorcycle accident lawyer is ready to stand up for victims

You may be riding your motorcycle straight through an intersection when a car turns in front of you. In the blink of an eye, your entire life can change as you slam into the vehicle and sustain serious injuries.

Unfortunately, the situation described above is not unusual. A car or a truck that moves into a motorcyclist's right of way can have devastating consequences. It's just one of many ways that a motorcycle accident can happen on the streets of Michigan. What's very frustrating in these types of accidents is that the insurance company may try to blame the motorcycle rider. Without an experienced motorcycle accident lawyer in Michigan, you may end up settling your case for far less than it is worth.

Causes of motorcycle accidents in Michigan

The following are just a few examples of how motorcycle accidents happen:

  • Car or truck turns in front of a motorcyclist who has the right of way in an intersection
  • Car or truck changes lanes and strikes motorcyclist.
  • Driver is distracted and rear-ends a motorcyclist waiting at an intersection for a light to change.
  • A drunk driver or a driver who is texting while driving recklessly crashes into a motorcyclist.
  • A motorcyclist loses control due to a defect in the road, such as a pothole or broken pavement.

A common excuse by a driver is that he or she "didn't see" the motorcyclist. The failure to see a motorcyclist who is operating legally on the road is no excuse in an accident. Let tough-minded accident attorneys in Michigan fight to protect your legal rights.
