Motorcycle Accidents on Maryland’s Eastern Shore
Monday’s motorcycle crash at Rt 13 and Somerset Ave highlights the ongoing risks faced by riders on high-speed roads like U.S. Route 13. Intersections such as this one in Princess Anne are especially hazardous for motorcyclists due to frequent turning traffic, limited reaction time, and reduced visibility compared to larger vehicles.
Motorcycle accidents often result in serious or life-threatening injuries—even in low-speed collisions—because riders lack the protective enclosure afforded by passenger vehicles. Common injuries include fractures, head trauma, and internal injuries, and recovery can require extended medical care and rehabilitation.
While the full circumstances of this crash are still under investigation, it serves as a reminder of the importance of driver awareness and caution—especially when motorcycles are present. For victims, the aftermath of such crashes often involves not only physical recovery but also emotional and financial strain.
