A Motorcycle Accident Lawyer Philadelphia Demands

Motorcycle accidents can be deadly. In fact, they often cause worse injuries than other accidents because many bikes lack safety features, such as airbags, and seat-belts. Unlike cars, bikes do not have crumple zones to absorb collision impacts.

In general, motorcycle drivers and passengers have nothing more than helmets to protect their heads. Data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration shows that motorcycle riders are many times more likely to die in accidents than do automobile passengers.

Of course, bikers hardly need statistics to understand the dangers of the open road. Distracted drivers on cell phones and loaded trailers unable to stop quickly can all cause injuries that may disable bike riders permanently, or in the worst cases, kill them.

Even if you’re lucky, the road to recovery can be long and hard. When you or a friend falls victim to motorcycle injuries on crowded Philadelphia roads, recovery could take years. This is why you may need immediate representation to protect your rights and explain your legal obligations. If your injuries are the fault of another party, you may have a personal injury case.
