Motorcycle Head-On Collisions In California
Head-on collisions do not happen as often as other kinds of motorcycle accidents, but when they do occur the end results can be horrific for a rider and for the rider’s family. Serious injuries – and even death – are highly possible.
Head-on crashes take place when a vehicle crosses the center line of a road or a vehicle is moving the wrong way down a one-way street. This can occur when a rider is:
- Tired
- Drunk
- Distracted
- Being careless
Personal injuries are the most common and serious type of damages from a head-on collision. The rider may be ejected from the bike and may suffer injuries such as:
- Traumatic head or brain injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
- Fractured Bones
- Facial or dental injuries
- Wounds or lacerations
- Amputations
