Motorcycle accidents can result in serious injuries to motorcyclists. They do not have the same protection as vehicle occupants do, even though they are traveling in the same locations, at the same speeds. If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident, it is important that you speak with a qualified Orlando motorcycle accident attorney, as you may be eligible for compensation.

Types of Motorcycle Injuries

Motorcycle accidents frequently result in very serious injury, permanent disability or fatality. Some of the most common types of injuries include:
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Neck injuries
  • Head injuries
  • Fractured bones
  • Lacerations
  • Abrasions
Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

Vehicle drivers may not always see, or respect, the motorcyclists that share the road with them. Because of this, many motorcycle accidents are caused by the negligence of a vehicle driver. A high percentage of motorcycle accidents involve at least one passenger car, particularly when the passenger car violates the right of way of the motorcyclist. In most cases, the driver does not notice or even see the motorcycle until it is too late.

Preventing Injury in a Motorcycle Accident

The best way to prevent injury in a motorcycle accident is for a motorcyclist to wear a helmet. The helmet will help to protect the head from injury by diffusing the force of an impact. This can potentially save the life of the motorcyclist.

Other safety measures a motorcyclist should take include

• Wearing brightly colored clothing
• Making sure that the headlamps and lights work properly
• Wearing thick jackets
• Wearing gloves
