Motorcycle Accidents...
Because motorcycles do not offer the physical protection that autos do, motorcycle riders are much more susceptible to catastrophic injuries, such as spinal cord injuries, brain injuries, fractured bones and wrongful death.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration:
- In 2005, 4,553 motorcyclists were killed and an additional 87,000 were injured in traffic crashes in the United States.
- 132,000 motorcyclists have died in traffic crashes since the enactment of the Highway National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1966..
- Motorcyclists were about 34 times more likely than passenger car occupants to die in a motor vehicle crash and 8 times more likely to be injured.
If you have suffered a head, spinal cord, neck injury, or any other injury, in a motorcycle accident caused by the negligence of another driver, you have numerous legal rights. Some of those include, but are not limited to:
- Reimbursement for damage to your motorcycle
- Medical expenses for the past and future
- Lost wages in the past and future
- Compensation for pain and suffering
In order to understand the dynamics of a motorcycle case, it is imperative that the lawyer understand the dynamics of riding a motorcycle. Attorney Timothy C. Nies is a motorcycle enthusiast. In fact, his sole source of transportation while in college was on a motorcycle.
