Motorcycle Accident Lawyer in Cheatham County, TN

Protecting Motorcycle Riders in Dickson County & Montgomery County

Motorcycle injuries are a rider’s worst nightmare. Even minor motorcycle accidents can still lead to severe scrapes, major injuries, and long-term side effects. The fact of the matter is that you are more vulnerable on a motorcycle than drivers of other vehicles. Perhaps you have taken every motorcycle safety and rider’s course available, but you can’t always account for other drivers on the road. In fact, most motorcycle accidents are caused by other drivers — not the motorcycle rider.

If you or a loved one were injured in a wreck due to another person’s negligence or distracted driving, contact personal injury attorney Rhonda R. Crabtree today.

Understanding the Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcycle accidents can be devastating and often result from a range of specific factors. Understanding these common causes can help both riders and drivers take preventative measures to enhance road safety. Here are some frequent contributors to motorcycle accidents:

  • Driver Negligence: Other road users often fail to notice motorcyclists due to their smaller size and less visible profile.
  • Distracted Driving: Activities such as texting or using a phone significantly increase the risk of collisions with motorcycles.
  • Speeding: Excessive speed reduces reaction time, making it harder to avoid potential hazards on the road.
  • Poor Road Conditions: Potholes, debris, and uneven surfaces can lead to loss of control for motorcyclists.
  • Weather Conditions: Rain, fog, and other adverse weather reduce visibility and traction, complicating riding.
  • Hazards from Other Vehicles: Sudden lane changes or failure to yield at intersections by other drivers pose risks to motorcyclists.

Being aware of these causes can help both riders and drivers stay vigilant and take necessary precautions. For those affected by motorcycle accidents, seeking legal advice can provide essential guidance on navigating the aftermath and securing appropriate compensation.

Common Challenges in Motorcycle Injury Cases

Proving Fault

When you’re involved in a motorcycle accident, you should file a police report and notify the insurance company. Each of these parties will be interested in determining who is at fault. Unfortunately, however, it can sometimes be difficult to prove who caused the accident. The police report may be written in such a way that it doesn’t really reflect what happened, making it even more difficult for you to hold the responsible party accountable. Similarly, insurance companies frequently want to say the motorcycle rider did something wrong, like speeding or making illegal maneuvers. That’s why it’s also important to work with a skilled personal injury attorney who is familiar with motorcycle accident cases. You should also make sure to get witness statements, if possible.
