Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

There are many causes of motorcycle accidents. However, the most common causes occur when drivers fail to paying attention to their surroundings. As a result, drivers often rear end motorcycles, change lanes into motorcycles, or make a left turn into the oncoming path of motorcycles. In fact, the left hand turn is a common cause of many motorcycle accidents in Chicago, Illinois and the outlying suburbs. Driver inattention often occurs when the driver is distracted. There are many causes of driver distraction. These causes include talking on the cell phone, attempting to eat, change the radio station, applying makeup, and attempting to talk and look at other passengers.

In addition to driver inattention, there are still other causes of motorcycle accidents. These other causes include driving to close to the rider, speeding, sleepiness, fatigue, alcohol, and/or drugs. Of course, there may be other causes based on the unique facts of the particular accident.

Motorcycle Accident Injuries

There are many injuries that can occur from a motorcycle accident. These injuries include soft tissue injuries such abrasions (or road rash), contusions (bruises), lacerations (cuts), sprains, and strains. More serious injuries include fractures (broken bones), torn ligaments, closed head injuries (resulting in memory loss, cognition loss, and other brain damage), and herniated or bulging discs. The medical expenses, possible lost wages, and other expenses associated with motorcycle injuries can be very high.

In addition to financial expenses, motorcycle accidents routinely result in other forms of damages. These damages include pain and suffering, loss of a normal life, and disfigurement. In extreme causes, a motorcycle accident can result in death.

Thorough, articulate, and extremely knowledgeable of the law. Jason is someone I would highly recommend to family and friends. He represented me in an automobile case and was very happy with the overall experience and outcome! Joni S.
★★★★★
Jason handled a very challenging auto accident case for me. My injuries were all based on preexisting conditions that were made worse by the accident. He did an amazing job proving up my case, which included destroying the defense expert at deposition. In the end, I received an excellent settlement on a tough case. Jason is a very smart, talented, and diligent lawyer who I would highly recommend to anyone. Phil S.
