What Motorists in Missouri Should Know About Car and Motorcycle Crashes
Crashes between cars and motorcycles are among the more serious types of collisions on Missouri roads. Motorcycles offer little protection compared to enclosed vehicles, which means riders are far more exposed to injury when a crash occurs. Even at moderate speeds, the impact between a car and a motorcycle can result in significant harm to the rider.
Rural routes like those found throughout Boone County tend to have higher speed limits and fewer traffic controls, which can increase the severity of any collision. Drivers sharing the road with motorcycles are encouraged to check blind spots carefully, especially when changing lanes or making turns. Motorcycles can be harder to see than other vehicles, particularly in low-light conditions or when traveling near larger vehicles that block sightlines.
