Motorcycle accidents can have devastating effects on the parties involved. Motorcycle riding has seen an increase throughout the United States, so it’s no coincidence the number of accidents has also grown. These crashes have slowly increased in Missouri since 2005, with 2008 proving to be the deadliest year.
Although motorcycles are economically responsible when gas prices are sky high, they can be dangerous. This is especially true when negligent drivers do not respect traffic laws. If the motorcycle driver in no way causes the accident, we want to take action against the party at fault.
Motorcyclists are known to be instinctively defensive drivers. This is to manage the additional risk that comes with driving a vehicle missing the standard protection of a frame. Though most of these drivers make it a point to drive more safely, the hectic driving of others on the road cannot be controlled. When you’ve done all you can, but still find yourself in a collision, that is where we come in.
