Monroe County Motorcycle Accident Lawyers

In Monroe County, a motorcycle accident is often one of the more catastrophic motor vehicle accidents, with injuries to the motorcycle rider tending to be more serious and medical costs being higher.

Motorcyclists are 5 times more likely to be injured than a person riding in a passenger vehicle and are approximately 25 times more likely to be killed in a road accident due to their smaller size and lack of bodily protection. In the majority of Monroe County motorcycle accident cases, the other vehicle violated the motorcyclist’s right-of-way and caused the collision.

Under Pennsylvania's laws, if you have been injured in a motor vehicle wreck, including a motorcycle collision that was caused by another person’s carelessness or recklessness, you may be entitled to recover damages that include medical costs, property loss, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

There are a wide range of causes for motorcycle accidents, some of which include:

• Limited visibility – due to the set up of intersections, buildings, parked vehicles, shrubbery, etc. About 70 percent of motorcycle accidents occur at intersections.
• Road hazards - Potholes, oil slicks, puddles, debris, and uneven pavement
• Invisibility of motorcyclists - The bike rider may be undetected by other drivers. Truck drivers are at even more risk of missing a motorcyclist. Drivers of these huge vehicles often have blind spots and do not see the comparatively small motorcycle, which can result in a collision.
• Weather – Heavy rain, snow, hail, etc. can lead to decreased visibility and hazardous driving conditions.
