Why Serious Motorcycle Accidents Occur
The increase of traffic on United States roads means an increased risk of accidents for motorcycle riders. More and more drivers on the road fail to see motorcycle riders when they should. They change lanes – often, without signaling – and crash into motorcycle riders. They fail to stop in time, or they engage in other negligent or reckless actions like speeding, talking on cellphones, and driving while intoxicated or distracted.
This negligence causes serious personal injury, including losses of limbs, traumatic brain injuries, paralysis, spinal cord injuries and severe burns. At Garton & Vogt, P.C., our attorneys hold negligent drivers responsible for the pain they cause in motorcycle accidents.
One of our lawyers, Arthur A. Garton, has ridden motorcycles for the last 41 years. More than just understanding the law on motorcycle accidents, he understands bikers and their perspectives. Mr. Garton truly understands the dangers that motorcycle riders experience on the roads. he knows the hazards caused by negligent drivers who claim they just don’t see motorcycles when they should be watching traffic more closely.
