Miami Gardens Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

If you are a regular motorcycle rider, it is no surprise to you that some drivers are careless around motorcyclists. They often follow too closely, sometimes pretending they don’t see them. We know you take steps to mitigate an accident.

If a driver is intoxicated, the damage they can do to others on the roadway could be detrimental – especially to someone on a motorcycle. There is not much protection for a motorcyclists against the force of a vehicle and the ground. Common injuries include road rash and broken bones, but often, the damage is much worse. Internal injuries are common in motorcycle accidents, as is major head trauma. Many of these injuries require surgery and could mean long-term rehabilitation.

Another major problem for motorcycle riders is distracted drivers. If someone is looking down at their phones and not watching the roadway, they certainly won’t be paying attention to those on a cycle around them. This is negligent driving behavior.

Whether a driver is impaired or distracted, they should be held liable for their behavior if they cause damages or injuries. There is a chance that insurance won’t cover all of your needs, especially if you have to miss work and lose out on valuable income. If you are disabled for the short or long term after an accident, you may be scared about the future.

In Florida, there were over 515 fatalities and around 8,000 injuries in motorcycle accidents last year. While we know this is not something you plan on, when it happens, you need to know the next steps.
