Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents
Although statistics show that motorcycle accidents occur less frequently than car crashes, the resulting injuries usually are far more devastating and far-reaching in their consequences for the motorcycle rider and passenger.
Common causes of motorcycle accidents include:
- Vehicles Making Left-Hand Turns: A significant percentage of all accidents involving motorcycles and cars are the result of the driver making a dangerous left-hand turn. These types of motorcycle accident occur at intersections while a vehicle is attempting to turn but fails to spot the motorcycle.
- Lane Splitting: When motorcyclists maneuver between two lanes of stopped or slowly moving cars, they are sometime struck by drivers changing lanes who didn’t see them. Lane splitting commonly causes motorcycle accidents because the minimal space makes it harder for riders to maneuver around potential hazards.
- Collisions with Fixed Objects: Motorcycles colliding with fixed objects also account for a substantial portion of motorcycle rider fatalities. Because motorcycle riders aren’t protected by a metal frame like drivers of other vehicles, they are more likely to be ejected during the accident and sustain catastrophic injuries after colliding with a fixed object.
- Road Hazards: There are a variety of dangerous road hazards that motorcyclists should be aware of, including irregular objects in the road, potholes, slick road conditions, dead animals in the roadway, and uneven heights between lanes.
- Distracted Drivers: When drivers are distracted by phone calls or text messages, they are at risk of colliding with motorcycles sharing the road.
