Motorcycle riding is a popular and enjoyable activity for many Americans, but it can be dangerous as well. Americans love to ride their motorcycles and this is reinforced by the fact there are over four million motorcycles registered in the United States.

The popularity of motorcycle riding is also evident in the growing number of motorcycle accidents reported every year. Over seventy-thousand motorcycle accidents with serious injuries are reported annually. The most common motorcycle accidents are usually caused by someone's negligence, the failure to yield, hazardous weather or road conditions and driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

A motorcycle accident can result in minor scrapes or bruises or massive trauma to the head, spinal cord, broken bones, severe burns and even death. The damages suffered in a motorcycle accident can be overwhelming with costly medical bills, lost income, rehabilitation costs and the cost of long term care when a permanent disability is incurred.
