Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcycle accidents often result from the negligence of other drivers. These accidents can lead to severe injuries or even fatalities, impacting the lives of riders and their families. 

Some common causes of these accidents include:

  • Distracted driving: Activities like texting, phone calls, or other distractions can take a driver's focus off the road, significantly increasing the risk of accidents.
  • Impaired driving: Operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs severely affects judgment and reaction time, making accidents far more likely.
  • Failure to yield: Drivers who fail to see or yield the right of way to motorcyclists can cause devastating collisions.
  • Left-turn accidents: Drivers making left turns often misjudge a motorcycle's speed or fail to see it altogether, leading to serious accidents.
  • Speeding and reckless driving: Excessive speed reduces a driver's ability to react and can have catastrophic consequences in an accident.
  • Hazardous road conditions: Potholes, debris, or poor road maintenance can create dangerous situations for motorcyclists, increasing the likelihood of accidents.

If you or a loved one has been injured in a motorcycle accident due to another driver's negligence, you may have the right to seek compensation. Contact our team to schedule your consultation today.

Common Motorcycle Accident Injuries

The unfortunate reality of motorcycle accidents is that riders are particularly vulnerable to severe injuries. The absence of a protective shell leaves them exposed to the full force of impact in a collision, often leading to devastating consequences.

These injuries can range from painful road rash and broken bones to life-altering conditions like traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord damage. Even with protective gear, the impact of a crash can cause internal injuries that might not be immediately apparent but can be equally devastating.

The physical and emotional toll of these injuries is immense, affecting not only the victim's body but also their livelihood and overall well-being.

Georgia Motorcycle Laws

Whether you're cruising through the scenic byways of Georgia or navigating the streets of Lawrenceville, understanding and obeying motorcycle laws is paramount. These laws exist to protect riders, passengers, and other road users.

Key regulations motorcyclists must adhere to include:

  • Helmet requirement: All riders and passengers, regardless of age or experience, must wear a DOT-approved helmet at all times while on a motorcycle.
  • Eye protection: Unless your motorcycle has a windshield, you are required to wear appropriate eye protection, such as goggles or a face shield.
  • License and endorsement: To legally operate a motorcycle in Georgia, you need a Class M license or a motorcycle endorsement on your existing driver's license.
  • Insurance: Motorcycle owners must carry liability insurance with minimum coverage limits as set by state law. This helps protect you financially in the event of an accident.
  • Lane splitting: Riding between lanes of traffic, also known as lane splitting or filtering, is prohibited in Georgia.
  • Equipment: Your motorcycle must be equipped with functioning headlights, taillights, brakes, and turn signals to maintain visibility and safety on the road.

Being aware of and adhering to these laws can significantly reduce your risk of accidents and injuries.
