Motorcycle Accidents in California
The reason thousands of motorcycle accidents occur in California every year is because motorcyclists aren’t always respected on the road. Drivers don’t always check their blind spots for cyclists even though they’re required to, which usually results into serious injuries or death. Whenever drivers are on their phones texting, calling, programming a GPS, or checking their social media, they’re putting motorcyclists at high risk of being hit. Other causes of accidents include driving under the influence and speeding, which could have been the case for this accident since it occurred around 2:00 a.m.
Once the police finish investigating and come to a conclusion, it’s likely that a personal injury lawsuit will be filed. At Brady Law Group, we’ve helped thousands of motorcyclists obtain large settlements to help cover medical bills, loss of earnings, pain and suffering, and more.
