These Crashes Can Be Devastating

Whether you are a motorcycle rider or not, it is easy to understand why motorcycle crashes often cause severe injuries. Even when a motorcyclist is wearing a helmet, they are still exposed to much more trauma in the event of a crash than those in a regular passenger vehicle. In most cases, a motorcyclist is going to suffer injuries from two impacts – one with a vehicle and one with the ground.

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

Consider that the medical cost for some of those injuries can reach into the hundreds of thousands of dollars (first-year costs for a spinal cord injury can reach over $1.1 million dollars). In many cases, a crash victim needs to undergo extensive rehabilitation and follow-up procedures. This can mean time away from work and their income.

For the latest reporting year in Ohio, there were 159 motorcycle crash deaths. Thousands more were injured. In fact, nearly every motorcycle crash results in some kind of injury.

In many cases, we find that these incidents happen due to another person’s negligent driving behavior and are not caused by the motorcyclist. All too often, drivers ignore motorcyclists and do not give them enough space on the roadway. We also know that alcohol-impaired drivers and those who drive while distracted by their cell phones pose a significant risk to motorcyclists.

If a motorcyclist is injured due to the negligence of another driver, they need to be able to secure compensation.
