Common Motorcycle Accident Injuries
Motorcycle accident injuries only begin with the initial crash. Motorcycle accident victims sustain additional injuries when they are struck by other vehicles, strike fixed objects, and get entangled in their bikes. Common motorcycle accident injuries include:
- Spinal cord injuries
- Back injuries
- Head and brain injuries
- Facial injuries
- Eye injuries
- Knee injuries
- Severe road rash
- Amputations
- Broken bones and fractures
- Soft tissue injuries
- Severe burns from fuel-fed fires
- Lacerations
- Scarring so severe that it limits mobility
- Exposure injuries, including frostbite, severe sunburn, and dehydration
Single Vehicle and Hit-and-Run Accidents
Single vehicle and hit-and-run accidents pose additional dangers. Victims may not be discovered for hours or days, causing a delay in treatment and, in many cases, additional injuries caused by exposure to the elements. Survivable injuries can become fatal. Injuries which could have healed can progress to the point of permanent impairment or amputation. Delayed treatment can cause brain injury due to a prolonged lack of oxygen to the brain.
If you were injured in a single vehicle accident, or if the driver cannot be identified or located in hit-and-run, there may be other avenues of compensation for you. We may be able to find insurance coverage that you are not aware of. A defective motorcycle or roadway may have caused your accident or contributed to the seriousness of your injuries.
