Motorcycle riders have the right to use our roads just like any other vehicle operator or driver. This is why there are bike lanes in most major cities as it is generally recognized that a motorcycle and bike are both bona fide vehicles. Individuals that get into auto accidents while on their motorcycles do so because of drivers flouting or breaking traffic laws, something that can be determined once the whole incident is fully investigated. If you’re a motorcycle rider that was injured by a driver on the road, it is vital that you seek out medical attention shortly after your accident even if you feel fine. This will help you not only ensure that you don’t have any hidden injuries which may become catastrophic later on such as internal bleeding, but it will also determine how much you’ll get as payout for your injuries. It is important as well to reach out to an attorney so they can determine your total payout for money damages for things like property damage, cost of present and future medical care, and lost wages, and we’re here to help with that.
