Current MOtorcycle Crash Statistics

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA):

  •  In 2022, 5,932 motorcyclists were killed  in crashes across the United States—the  highest number on record
  •  Motorcyclists are nearly 24 times more likely to die in a traffic crash than passenger car  occupants. 
  •  They are also four times more likely to be injured  in a crash. 
  •  Speeding, impaired driving, and lack of visibility are among the leading contributors to  fatal motorcycle collisions

Despite these dangers, motorcycle riders have the same rights on the road as every other  motorist. When other drivers are negligent, the consequences for motorcyclists can be  devastating. 

The Risks Of Motorcycle Riding

Motorcycle riders face significantly higher risks on the road compared to drivers of passenger vehicles. Unlike cars, motorcycles offer no protective exterior structure, seat belts, or airbags to absorb impact. Even with a helmet and protective gear, riders remain exposed to direct contact with the road, other vehicles, and dangerous obstacles in the event of a crash.

 

 At Bryan K. Harris, P.C., we represent motorcycle accident victims and their families nationwide.  Whether your injuries stem from a collision with another vehicle or from a mechanical failure or design defect in your motorcycle, our attorneys are prepared to pursue the full compensation you are entitled to under the law.

Common Motorcycle Accident Injuries

Motorcycle accidents frequently result in serious or life-altering injuries, especially in high-speed  or high-impact collisions. Common injuries include:

Recovery from these injuries can require long-term hospitalization, multiple surgeries,  rehabilitation, and extensive time away from work. The financial burden can be overwhelming,  especially when insurance companies attempt to shift blame onto the rider.

Motorcycle Defects and Product Liability

Motorcycle Defects and Product Liability

Not all motorcycle accidents are caused by driver negligence. Some crashes occur due to design  flaws, mechanical failures, or defective parts, including:

Faulty brakes or brake lines

Defective tires or wheel components

Suspension failures

Electrical malfunctions

Steering defects or stability issues

Faulty brakes or brake lines

Defective tires or wheel components

Suspension failures

Electrical malfunctions

Steering defects or stability issues

Our attorneys investigate every possible cause of the accident. If a defective part or poor design  contributed to the crash, we pursue claims against the motorcycle manufacturer or parts supplier  under product liability laws.

What COmpensation Can Cover

If you were injured in a motorcycle accident, you may be entitled to compensation for:

  •   Medical expenses (current and future) 
  • Lost wages and reduced earning capacity 
  • Pain and suffering 
  • Physical disfigurement 
  • Emotional distress 
  • Long-term care and rehabilitation
  • Wrongful death and funeral costs (for surviving family members)
