Liability for Long Island Car Accidents

Motorcyclists have a naturally small profile and are more likely to be overlooked by other drivers. According to the National Safety Council, “Although motorcycles make up only 3% of all registered vehicles and 0.6% of all vehicle miles traveled in the United States, motorcyclists accounted for 15.5% of all traffic fatalities and 3.4% of all injuries in 2023.” Drivers should take a number of measures to avoid colliding with motorcycles.

• Drivers should check their blind spots before making turns.
• Drivers should continuously scan the road ahead of them for hazards.
• Drivers should abstain from alcohol and other intoxicating substances.

Drivers have a legal obligation to exercise due care to avoid colliding with any motorcyclist or vehicle on the roadway. They must be particularly cautious when making left turns. Drivers must yield the right-of-way to any motorcyclist that is close enough to pose a hazard before making a turn. If a driver makes an unsafe turn into the path of a motorcyclist, they could be held at fault through a civil claim. Victims of motorcycle accidents tend to suffer very serious injuries.

• Broken bones
• Head injuries
• Lacerations
• Organ damage
• Spinal cord trauma

Even after the physical injuries associated with any accident heal, motorcycle accident survivors are at great risk of suffering long-term psychological injuries. This can manifest through anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. It is important that victims understand their legal rights. Any person injured in a motorcycle accident may be entitled to compensation through a personal injury claim.
