What Is Commonly Reviewed After a Motorcycle Crash?
Motorcycle crashes can involve several factors that help explain how a collision occurred. These may include vehicle positions, traffic signals, turning movements, lane markings, and roadway conditions. Photos and measurements can also show where vehicles came to rest and how much damage occurred.
Witness accounts may provide additional information about what each driver or rider was doing before the collision. Investigators may also review available traffic camera footage, vehicle data, and other records when they exist.
Motorcycle riders face greater exposure than people inside enclosed vehicles, so the severity of injuries can be higher when a motorcycle is involved. Helmets, protective clothing, visibility, and road conditions can all affect the outcome of a motorcycle crash.
