Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

While riding a motorcycle, you are exposed to all of the regular hazards of driving plus all of the added risks that come with being on a motorcycle.  Motorcycles can be hard to spot, hard to hear, and overlooked by other drivers.  Some of the most common causes of motorcycle accidents are:
​​

• Failure to Yield

​Failure of other drivers to yield to an oncoming motorcycle is a frequent cause of motorcycle accidents.  For example, a motorist making a left turn in front of an oncoming motorcycle can be disastrous for the rider.  There are many reasons why these accidents occur, simple driver inattention being the leading cause.​

• Tailgating

​​Drivers who follow another vehicle too closely are being careless and dangerous.  Following too closely can make it difficult or impossible for cars or trucks to stop for an emergency, a pedestrian, stop-and-go traffic, a traffic light, or many other situations.  Because these drivers do not have sufficient time to apply the brakes to avoid collision, they will often collide with the vehicle in front of them when they stop.  This may only cause minor physical damage to another car or truck, but when a vehicle strikes your motorcycle from the back it can result in much greater serious injury and property damage.

• Improper Lane Changes

​​Many automobile drivers do not pay proper attention when they drive down the roadway, including while changing lanes.  Failing to signal, failing to look in the side-view or rear-view mirrors, failing to properly adjust the side-view mirror, failing to account for the existence of a blind spot, or simply failing to pay attention can lead to traffic accidents.  Even in situations where a collision is avoided, a driver improperly changing lanes or driving erratically could cause a motorcyclist to take a major spill while attempting to avoid a crash.

These are only a few examples; there is no limit to the number of situations in which the inattention or negligence of a driver can directly result in injuries to those riding motorcycles.  Whatever the cause of your accident, you need a Phoenix motorcycle accident lawyer who knows what it takes to establish convincingly that another driver, not the motorcyclist, was at fault.
