Common Motorcycle Accidents We Handle

Motorcycle wrecks often stem from other motorists' negligence or unsafe conditions. We see recurring types such as:

Left‑Turn Crashes (T‑Bone)

Drivers often fail to see oncoming bikes making left-hand turns. These collisions can be catastrophic-head injuries and road rash are common.

Rear‑End & Dooring Crashes

Riders are vulnerable to being hit from behind or hit by car occupants opening doors suddenly.

Lane‑Splitting Injuries

Though legal in CA, lane‑splitting is dangerous when done by speeding riders or inattentive drivers.

Dangerous Road Conditions

Gravel, potholes, oil spills, or uneven lanes can easily cause a bike to lose control. Agencies may be liable for failing to maintain safe roads.

Driving Under the Influence (DUI)

Impaired drivers pose a major threat. Civil claims can add punitive damages to hold them accountable.

What to Do After a Motorcycle Accident

  • Move to safety and call 911 for police & medical assistance
  • Seek medical care immediately-even mild symptoms can signal serious injury
  • Take thorough photos: bike damage, debris, skid marks, road surface
  • Gather eyewitness info: names, contact details, statements
  • Do not apologize or give recorded statements to insurance companies
  • Call us 24/7 at (888) 500‑5000 to preserve your rights and evidence
