Motorcycle Accidents

Did You Know?

  • 75% of motorcycle accidents involve a collision with another vehicle — most often a passenger car.

  • A leading cause of these crashes is a driver's failure to yield the right of way to motorcyclists.

  • The primary cause of motorcycle accidents is motorists failing to see or recognize motorcycles in traffic.

  • On average, riders have less than 2 seconds to take evasive action to avoid a crash.

  • The most fatal injuries in motorcycle accidents are often to the head and chest.

  • Helmet use is the most effective way to reduce or prevent head injuries. Helmets that meet FMVSS 218 safety standards are proven to significantly improve survivability and reduce trauma.

At McArdle & Whitman, we understand the freedom, exhilaration, and passion that come with riding a motorcycle. Riders deserve to enjoy the open road without having that freedom jeopardized by careless or inattentive drivers. When a motorcyclist is injured due to another driver's negligence, we take action — aggressively pursuing justice on behalf of our clients.



Each case we handle sends a clear message: Riders have the right to safe roads.
