What should you do if you are a victim of a motorcycle accident?
Take the following steps if you’re ever involved in a motorcycle crash:
- Get medical attention immediately, even if your injuries seem minor. It’s possible to sustain injuries without even noticing symptoms.
- Contact the police and file an accident report.
- Gather evidence, including photos of the scene, damage, and injuries. Get the contact information of any witnesses at the scene as well.
- Obtain contact and insurance information from the other parties involved.
- Consult an experienced motorcycle accident attorney to protect your rights and seek fair compensation.
Research consistently indicates motorcyclists have a higher risk of sustaining serious injuries than other motorists do when accidents occur. Unfortunately, motorcycles don’t offer the same degree of protection enclosed vehicles provide.
The lack of protection leaves riders vulnerable to the full force of the impact. The consequences are often catastrophic. They may include broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, and spinal cord damage.
The treatment for such injuries is often very costly. Victims and their families may struggle to pay their medical bills, mainly if a victim’s injuries prevent them from working and earning an income.
Serious injuries from motorcycle accidents often require extensive medical treatment. Between emergency room visits, surgeries, rehabilitation, and long-term care, the cost of these treatments can add up quickly.
Additionally, victims may need to purchase special equipment, such as wheelchairs or prosthetics, to help them adapt to their injuries. These expenses can be significant, and insurance may not fully cover them. Sadly, some motorcycle accident victims sustain injuries so severe they require ongoing care throughout life.
Severe motorcycle accident injuries can prevent someone from doing their job. Someone harmed in a motorcycle wreck may be unable to work for weeks, months, or even years. If a victim can’t work, loss of their income could make paying for their care even more difficult than it already is.
Some victims can never return to their previous jobs after being hurt in motorcycle wrecks. While they may qualify for other types of jobs, those jobs might not pay as much as they previously earned. This can result in a significant loss of future earning potential, which can have a long-lasting impact on their financial stability.
“The financial impact of a motorcycle accident can be life-altering. Victims shouldn’t have to bear the burden alone. At Graves McLain, we fight to ensure you get fairly compensated so you can rebuild your life.”
