Motorcycle Accidents in California

In 2013, almost 500 motorcyclists lost their lives in motorcycle accidents in California. When motorcycle accidents occur at intersections, it’s usually when drivers fail to yield the right-of-way for oncoming motorcyclists by making left turns to early. Because motorcyclists are more exposed than drivers in passenger vehicles, they’re more likely to be seriously harmed.
