Motorcycle Accident Lawsuits
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that there were 4,810 motorcyclist fatalities in 2006. Motorcyclists face a real risk of injury or death every time they are on the road: motorcycles only account for 2 percent of the total registered vehicles on the road, yet motorcyclist fatalities make up 11 percent of the total number of accident deaths. During 2006, motorcycle accidents accounted for more fatalities than pedestrian accidents for the first time since the NHTSA began collecting data in 1975. On the whole, the NHTSA estimates that motorcyclists are 34 times more likely to die in a traffic collision than passenger vehicle occupants.
If you are a motorcyclist who has been injured in a traffic accident, you have rights that you need to protect. Motorcyclists have all of the same road privileges that other drivers do, but, unfortunately, many people do not heed them on the road. Our experienced Lancaster motorcycle accident lawyers can help Victorville and Apple Valley residents who have been involved in motorcycle accidents obtain fair and just compensation. Depending on the circumstances, it may be possible to obtain financial compensation for medical costs, rehabilitation costs, loss of wages, diminished earning capacity, and pain and suffering. If a loved one has suffered a catastrophic injury or been killed, we can help ensure that your family receives just restitution for your loss.
