Catastrophic Injuries in Motorcycle Accidents

When riding your motorcycle, you have a helmet to protect you in a crash—and that’s about it. You are depending on the attentiveness and care of the drivers around you to keep you safe. If a driver fails their duty of care owed to you, then they can cause a horrible crash that results in catastrophic injuries.

Some of the worst injuries suffered by motorcycle riders include:

• Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
• Spinal cord injuries
• Back and neck injuries
• Joint injuries
• Soft tissue injuries
• Broken bones
• Road rash
• Organ damage

Liability in a Motorcycle Accident Claim

Who is to blame for your motorcycle accident? You will probably be certain that it was not your fault. As your Fort Myers motorcycle accident lawyers, we are here to listen to and believe you. The problem is that the opposition and their insurance company will not believe you, even when the evidence is stacked up clearly.

We can use all sorts of evidence and investigation techniques to determine who is liable for your damages and losses. In personal injury claims, liability means blame or fault. The more liability the defendant has, the more compensation that they can owe you for the damages caused by the motorcycle accident.

To prove the other motorist was liable for your damages, we can use evidence like:

• Police accident reports
• Medical records
• Photographs of the crash
• Eyewitness testimonies

Florida Motorcycle Helmet Laws

Florida requires all riders under the age of 21 to wear a helmet while the motorcycle is in operation, which applies to operators and passengers alike. Even if you are not legally required to wear a motorcycle helmet, though, you always should. Motorcycle helmets save lives and reduce the risk of suffering a head injury in a wreck.

If you choose not to wear a helmet when you ride, then the defendant could argue that you made an “assumption of risk” that makes you more liable for any head or brain injury you suffered in the crash. The goal is to keep your liability as low as possible, hopefully at 0%. Not only can a motorcycle helmet save your life, but it can also save your claim.
