Motorcycle Accidents in California
Recent studies show that 52 percent of motorcycle accidents happen on weekend nights between 3:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. The leading cause of most motorcycle accidents is driver’s error, which includes speeding, driving under the influence, driving fatigued, using a cell phone, and more. There are also some cases where motorcycle accidents are caused by hazardous road conditions and/or malfunctioning auto parts.
Once the police determine what caused this crash and who will be held liable, it’s likely that the motorcyclist’s family will be able to file a wrongful death lawsuit with the help of a California wrongful death attorney.
