Various Causes of Motorcycle Crashes

Due to the size, shape, speed and maneuverability of motorcycles, these vehicles are simply more likely to be involved in serious accidents than traditional cars, trucks or vans. Besides the negligence of other motorists, hazards that can also lead to severe motorcycle accidents, include:

• Inclement weather, such as sleet or heavy
• Potholes and other roadway defects
• Distracted pedestrians, bicyclists and other unexpected elements of traffic, such as scooters
