Frequently Asked Questions
How do left-turning cars cause motorcycle collisions?
A common pattern involves a car turning left across an intersection and misjudging a motorcycle's speed or distance, cutting into its path before the rider can stop or swerve.
What can drivers do to watch for motorcycles?
Checking twice before turning or changing lanes, looking for the smaller profile of a motorcycle, and avoiding reliance on a quick glance can help drivers spot riders they might otherwise miss.
What should a rider do after a motorcycle crash?
A rider should get to a safe spot if possible, call for medical help, and seek evaluation even if injuries seem minor, since some, like head or internal injuries, are not obvious right away.
Are motorcycle accidents more common at intersections?
Intersections see a large share of motorcycle crashes because they involve turning vehicles, crossing paths, and quick decisions by multiple drivers at once.
