Motorcycle Accident Injuries Can Be Severe
Motorcycles are less visible than cars and trucks, and motorcyclists lack the protection of an enclosed vehicle. Therefore, they are more likely to be seriously injured or killed in a crash. The Insurance Information Institute estimated that, in 2015, the number of deaths on motorcycles per mile traveled was over 29 times the number in cars.
Motorcycle crashes can result in limb amputation as well as traumatic brain injury or spinal cord injury. The costs associated with a motorcycle accident are often very expensive. This is especially true in cases where the victim was severely injured as a result of the accident.
Common motorcycle injuries include:
- Head injury
- Road rash
- Biker’s arm
- Muscle damage
- Leg injury
Common Causes Of Georgia Motorcycle Accidents

- Rear-end collisions. This happens when a vehicle collides with the rear of a motorcycle. Often, this happens because a driver does not notice the motorcycle ahead.
- Left-hand turn accidents. This happens when a vehicle turns left onto a road in front of an oncoming motorcycle that was not noticed by the driver.
