Why Motorcycle Crashes Can Result in Serious Injuries
Motorcyclists have less physical protection than people traveling inside passenger vehicles, which can increase the risk of serious injury when a collision occurs. Even a crash at an intersection can result in significant injuries depending on the speed and direction of the vehicles involved.
Investigators may examine the roadway, vehicle and motorcycle damage, traffic conditions, witness accounts, and available video footage to reconstruct what happened. Information from witnesses can be especially important when authorities are still trying to establish how the collision occurred.
Drivers and motorcyclists can reduce crash risks by remaining alert at intersections, following traffic signals, maintaining safe speeds, and watching carefully for other road users.
