Motorcycles Are Highly Risky

Motorcycle Accident Lawyer LevittownWe know that motorcycles are popular in Pennsylvania, but we also know that there are risks associated with riding. Even when riders operate their bike safely and wear a helmet, the chance of sustaining a major injury in a crash is much greater than for those in traditional passenger vehicles. It is not uncommon for us to see the following injuries as a result of motorcycle crashes:

  • Spinal Cord Trauma (possible paralysis)
  • Head injuries/Traumatic Brain Injuries
  • Internal organ damage or internal bleeding
  • Broken or dislocated bones
  • Severe lacerations or road rash

Those injuries range in severity, but all require immediate medical attention. The cost of treating a severe spinal cord injury can reach more than $1 million for the first year of medical care. Even more minor injuries can lead to major medical bills.

In many cases, motorcycle crashes put families into financial jeopardy, especially if the victim is unable to work and earn an income.

How Often Do These Incidents Occur?

For the Latest Reporting Year in Pennsylvania, we know that there were more than 128,000 vehicle crashes reported. Out of those, there were 3,194 motorcycle crashes.

  • 3,052 motorcyclist injuries
  • 180 motorcyclist fatalities

Over the last five years, nearly 1,000 people have been killed in motorcycle crashes on Pennsylvania roadways.

Often, we find that drivers ignore motorcyclist and do not give them the space they deserve on the roadway. Other times, these crashes occur in the same ways as regular passenger vehicle wrecks, just with deadlier consequences.

It is important to note that alcohol-impaired and distracted drivers pose a significant risk to motorcyclists, as do those who speed and drive aggressively. If another driver’s negligence causes a Motorcycle Crash, that driver needs to be held accountable for damages and injuries.
