Motorcycle Accidents in California
Thousands of motorcycle accidents happen every year in the United States, with the leading cause being driver’s negligence. When drivers are too busy using their cell phones, driving under the influence, eating, conversing with passengers, and more, they are too distracted to check their blind spots or rear view mirrors for oncoming motorcyclists.
The police are currently investigating this accident to determine who had the right of way and who will be held liable for this accident. Depending on their findings, the injured motorcyclist may be able to file a personal injury lawsuit with the help of a California personal injury attorney.
