Why Intersections Present Added Risks for Motorcyclists
Intersections are among the most common places for motorcycle accidents because riders are more exposed than occupants of passenger vehicles. Drivers turning across traffic, failure to yield, limited visibility, and sudden lane changes can all contribute to these crashes. Even at moderate speeds, a motorcyclist may be thrown from the bike, increasing the likelihood of injury.
After a motorcycle accident, investigators often examine vehicle positions, roadway markings, traffic signals, witness accounts, and any available surveillance footage. Damage to the motorcycle and other involved vehicles may also help explain how the collision occurred. These findings can provide a clearer understanding of the sequence of events as additional information becomes available.
