Motorcycle Collisions in Massachusetts
Collisions between cars and motorcycles often result in severe injuries for riders, given their lack of physical protection compared to drivers in passenger vehicles. Boylston St, a heavily traveled route in Worcester, has seen its share of serious crashes, particularly during evening hours when traffic remains steady.
According to the Massachusetts Department of Transportation, motorcycle crashes account for a disproportionate number of serious injury and fatal accidents relative to other vehicle types. Factors commonly contributing to such incidents include visibility issues, sudden lane changes, and failure to yield.
Motorcyclists are encouraged to wear helmets and protective gear, follow speed limits, and remain alert in high-traffic areas. When collisions occur, victims may face extensive medical treatments, time away from work, and challenges with insurance claims.
