Lexington, KY Motorcycle Accidents Attorney
Helping Victims of Motorcycle Accidents in Kentucky
Crashes and accidents involving motorcycles can result in
severe, life-long
injuries and expensive medical treatment. The severity of these accidents can be
linked to many factors.
The primary factor is a motorcyclist's lack of protection while on
the road. While individuals in a passenger vehicle can benefit from a
host of safety features (such as airbags and seat belts), a motorcyclist
is more exposed, with little protection other than clothing and a helmet.
Therefore, when a motorcycle is involved in a crash, the
injuries can be devastating. Motorcycle injuries can range in severity from:
- Abrasions
- "Road rash"
- Lacerations
To more life-threatening injuries, such as:
- Brain damage
- Broken bones
- Spinal cord injuries
- Or even death
Motorcycle crashes can occur when other drivers do not see or do not follow
the law and yield the right of way to a motorcycle.
