The Cochran Firm Legal Blog

Motorcyclists are at a high risk of severe injury and death if they are involved in an accident simply because there is really nothing to protect them physically except their helmets and clothing from an impact with the pavement or another vehicle.

Some motorcycle accidents are caused by the negligence and recklessness of other drivers on the highways and some motorcycle accidents are caused by the motorcycle operators that do not obey the rules of the road, drive while under the influence of alcohol and drugs and also practice reckless driving behaviors. Unfortunately, there is no shortage of causes of accidents or shortage of injuries and deaths related to these accidents.

A motorcycle accident can result in scrapes and bruises or massive head trauma, spinal cord injuries, broken bones, and fatalities. The losses suffered in a motorcycle accident can be very high in terms of injuries, medical expenses, lost income, rehabilitation costs, and the cost of long term care in the case of a permanent disability.
