There are many advantages to riding motorcycles, which are exciting and fuel-efficient. Moreover, since motorcycles are so much smaller than cars, many drivers fail to see them when making lane changes or traveling through intersections.
When a driver is texting while driving and therefore does not see a motorcyclist, for instance, this may be a breach of duty that causes an accident. Similarly, a driver who is eating lunch in the car, fails to come to a complete stop at a stop sign, drunk driving, unsafe road conditions, failures to yield the right of way, and distracted driving are all common causes of motorcycle accidents. If you are injured while on your motorcycle, you may be able to bring a lawsuit against the driver of a larger vehicle that struck you. In most cases, you need to establish the driver’s negligence by a preponderance of the evidence. This means that you need to prove the driver’s duty towards you, a breach of duty, actual and proximate causation, and damages.
