Motorcycles can be Particularly Dangerous Vehicles
Motorcycle versus car accidents can cause minor injuries, severe injuries or even death. Motorcyclists have less protection and thus motorists should be more cautious. Liability for motorbike accidents is based on negligence and the riders are also to blame at times. Distracted driving, speeding, drunk driving, reckless driving, bad weather, wrong-way driving and failure to observe traffic laws are some of the causes of these traffic collisions.
While it is unclear in this incident which party is at fault, investigators will collect more details including witness statements to determine the factors that led to the incident.
