What Are the Most Common Causes of Motorcycle Crashes at Intersections in Texas?
Intersections are among the most dangerous spots for motorcyclists in Texas. Crashes often happen when a driver turning left fails to see an oncoming motorcycle, misjudging its speed or simply not noticing it at all. Because motorcycles are smaller than other vehicles, they can be harder to spot — especially at busy crossings during peak traffic hours.
Heavy vehicle damage in motorcycle crashes is common even at moderate speeds. The lack of a protective frame around the rider means that the force of impact transfers directly to the person, which is why protective gear and helmets matter so much on Texas roads. State law requires helmet use for riders under 21 and for those without approved insurance coverage.
