Motorcycle Accidents in California
There are many motorcyclists that call California roadways their home, but unfortunately, there are many accidents on these roadways as well. In 2013, 11,780 motorcyclists were injured and 480 were killed in California alone. Why do these accidents occur? Many times these types of accidents happen because of drivers not paying attention to oncoming motorcyclists, especially if they are driving while distracted, under the influence, or tired. These mistakes can be deadly when drivers fail to notice motorcyclists in their blind spots as the travel along the road.
