While all motorists must deal with road hazards like debris on the roadway, ice or slippery surfaces, motorcyclists must have a heightened focus on these potential hazards. Things that have little effect for motorists, such as uneven road surfaces, can be potentially fatal for a motorcyclist. It is important that bikers know what hazards to look out for and how to handle them.
If you believe that unsafe roads may have played a part in your motorcycle accident, our Phoenix motorcycle accident attorneys at Phillips Law Group are ready to assist. We can thoroughly investigate your accident to determine if you have a viable claim. If you decide to move forward, we can help you with all aspects of the claims process.
Motorcyclists encounter many more road hazards than other vehicles. Many of these hazards may be unexpected. Some possible hazards that motorcyclists should look out for include:
Motorcyclists can potentially avoid these road hazards, but this requires looking out for hazards and knowing how to properly handle the motorcycle to avoid a crash. Some steps that motorcyclists can take in certain situations include the following:
Since motorcyclists must often react quickly to possible hazards, it is important that they pull back and leave enough space between them and other motorists. They should leave at least three seconds between them and the next vehicle. They can determine the distance by fixing on a stationary object and counting how many seconds it takes the vehicle in front of them and the motorcyclist to get there.
If you were injured in a motorcycle accident and would like to learn about your options for recovery, an experienced personal injury lawyer in Phoenix can help. At Phillips Law Group, we can discuss your rights and whether you may be able to hold another party liable for your medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, and pain and suffering.
We offer a free consultation so that you can learn about your rights and we can analyze your case to determine if you have a viable claim. We work on a contingency fee basis, so there is no fee unless we successfully recover compensation for your claim.
