Motorcycle accidents are unfortunately all too common, and they often result in very serious injuries. Because motorcycles don’t offer the same level of protection as cars, riders are much more vulnerable to being thrown from their bikes or sustaining impact injuries in a collision. Head injuries are also a major concern in motorcycle accidents, as even a relatively low-speed fall can cause traumatic brain injuries. In addition to the physical injuries, motorcycle accidents can also have a lasting emotional impact. Witnesses to a collision may be traumatized by what they see, and victims may struggle with anxiety and fear long after the accident itself. The best way to prevent motorcycle accidents is to always wear a helmet and protective gear, and to ride defensively. However, even the most cautious rider can’t always avoid an accident.
