Motorcycle Accidents

It’s that time of year again when the roads are dry, the sun is shining, the air is warm, and motorcycles are back on the road. With that said, motorcycle accidents can result in serious or catastrophic personal injuries. Some of the most common personal injuries sustained in motorcycle accidents are:

  • Brain injuries
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Lacerations, scrapes and bruises
  • Broken bones
  • Facial injuries
  • Dental injuries
  • Scarring and burns

Some tips for staying safe on your motorcycle this summer and to avoid suffering personal injuries in a motorcycle accident are:

  • Wear your helmet
  • Wear protective gear
  • Remain visible
  • Drive defensively
  • Ensure your motorcycle is properly maintained
  • Drive sober

Taking these precautions will help to ensure your safety and the safety of those around you from sustaining catastrophic or serious personal injuries as the result of a motorcycle accident.

If you have been involved in a motorcycle accident, contact a knowledgeable lawyer at Law Fifty One LLP to see what options may be available to you in order to claim compensation.

Riding a motorcycle can be one of the most exciting ways to get around on the open road, however, it is also one of the most dangerous. When you are involved in a motorcycle accident, you do not have the same protection or restraints that you would if travelling in a car, truck or utility vehicle.

As a result, personal injuries sustained in motorcycle accidents are often catastrophic and can result in permanent impairment or death.

Personal injuries commonly seen as a result of motorcycle accidents are:

  • Brain injury
  • Spinal cord injury
  • Neck and back injury
  • Internal organ injury
  • Loss of limbs
  • Fractured bones
  • Burn injury
  • Degloving injury
  • Psychological injury
  • Scarring
  • Cuts and bruises
  • Torn ligaments
  • Friction burns

If you are injured in a motorcycle accident, you may be entitled to Section B benefits.
