Riverside Motorcycle Accident Attorneys

While the number of auto accidents may be declining, the number of motorcycle accidents is unfortunately on the upswing. Motorcycle related deaths increased by 5.1% in 2006, making it the 9th consecutive increase for motorcycle death accidents. Nationwide, deaths have risen from about 2,100 in 1997 to more than 4,800 in 2007.

Some startling facts about motorcycle accidents:

	Motorcycle riders in an accident are 32 times more likely than passenger car occupants to die
	Motorcycle riders are 6 times more likely to be injured in a crash than other types of vehicles
	One out of every 5 motorcycle crashes result in head or neck injuries for the rider
	Single vehicle motorcycle accidents account for nearly 45% of all motorcycle fatalities
	Motorcycles are more likely than passenger vehicles to be involved in a fatal collision with a fixed object
	In 2004,18% of passenger cars that collided with fixed objects resulted in a fatality, while 26% of motorcycles that collided with such objects resulted in a fatality

There are simply more motorcycles on the road than ever before and the relationship between cars and bikes hasn’t yet worked itself out.

The most common causes for motorcycle accidents are:

	motorists' failure to yield the right of way
	cars cutting off a biker riding behind it
	lack of proper training by the biker
	lack of proper gear, primarily a good helmet
	bikers trying to share a lane with another driver or riding in the shoulder
