Northeast Georgia Motorcycle Accident Attorneys - May is National Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month
NORTHEAST GEORGIA MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT ATTORNEYS
Motorcycle Accidents are very common and can cause severe injuries to riders. May is National Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month.
Motorcyclists often times get a bad rap, and catch the blame for accidents they are involved in. The statistical facts do not back this up. Most of the wrecks involving motorcycles in Georgia are caused by the negligence of the drivers of cars, SUVs, and big rig commercial trucks – not motorcycles. Usually the cause of the wreck is the negligence of not being aware of motorcycles on the roadway or failing to signal when making a simple lane change or turn.
Obviously, when motorcycles are involved in accidents the injuries to the riders can be catastrophic and life-changing. The operators of motorcycles are at a much greater risk for severe injury due to the exposure to oncoming vehicles and the unforgiving road surfaces.
