The decision to purchase or ride a motorcycle comes with plenty of risk. Regardless of the proper precautions you take such as wearing a helmet, a protective suit or being a cautious rider, an injury can be easily sustained should an accident occur. In most cases of motorcycle accidents, it is generally not the rider’s fault. With the inherent risk that comes with riding a motorcycle, that risk becomes even greater when riding in South Florida. Miami Dade county is home to nearly 3 million people with an estimated 64,000 automobile accidents per year. In the event that you were seriously injured in a motorcycle accident in South Miami, contact a Miami personal injury lawyer as soon as possible. It is essential to start the damages recovery procedure right way because a mistake at this stage can make things very complicated at a later stage.
South Miami is a wonderful place to spend time at, and it’s a pity when someone else’s mistake causes a motorcycle accident and injuries on your side. That’s a tricky situation since motorcycle drivers do not enjoy the protection of a chassis as with the car drivers. Automobile drivers are protected by the frames of their cars which prevent them from being ejected as even in the event they were not wearing a seatbelt. Motorcycle riders are not confined within a car frame and when an accident occurs, regardless of the speed of the collision, they will be ejected or fall from their vehicle. The danger is not only from the initial impact, but also any impact that comes after the collision. This is why generally motorcycle riders suffer more severe injuries.
