What Causes Motorcycle Accidents?

Most motorcycle accidents are commonly caused by the misjudgments, mistakes and/or reckless actions of motorists. This negligence can be enacted by passenger vehicle drivers, truck drivers and even motorcycle riders themselves. Some examples include:

• Impaired driving
• Distracted driving
• Aggressive driving
• Failures to comply with traffic laws.

In addition to motorist negligence, other factors that can contribute to motorcycle crashes include (and are not necessarily limited to) the negligence of:

• Equipment manufacturers in the event that equipment failures lead to wrecks
• Municipalities (or others) when dangerous roads contribute to crashes.

Please note that, in many cases, a motorcycle accident can be caused by the negligence of more than one party.

Who Is At Fault for Motorcycle Accidents?

Fault for a motorcycle accident will depend on the causes of that wreck. While Attorney Jennifer Bisset can help you determine fault for your motorcycle crash (after carefully reviewing the facts and evidence associated with your accident), typically, the following parties are among those who can be liable for these wrecks:

• Other drivers or motorcycle riders
• Vehicle or motorcycle manufacturers
• Equipment manufacturers
• Parties responsible for building and maintaining safe roads.

Some evidence that can be helpful in making liability determinations in the aftermath of a motorcycle accident can include:

• Accident scene photos
• Police reports
• Witness statements
• Cellphone records.

Am I Entitled to Compensation for My Motorcycle Accident?

Eligibility for motorcycle accident compensation will depend on the nature of the negligence (and negligent parties) that caused the wreck. In particular, you will likely be entitled to compensation if some other party was more negligent (than you may have been) in causing the crash.

This is because Colorado follows the 50 percent Bar Rule, meaning that:

• Accident victims can be legally entitled to compensation if their level of fault in the accident is found to be no more than 49 percent.
• When victims are partly at fault for an accident, their recoveries will be reduced proportionally to their percentage of fault.

Attorney Jennifer Bisset can help you determine all at-fault parties and hold them accountable so you are able to obtain the maximum possible compensation for your claim. While this compensation can never erase irreversible losses caused by serious motorcycle accidents, it can help victims and families pick up the pieces and start rebuilding their lives.
