Prescott Valley Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

Riding a motorcycle in Arizona can be a fun and exciting way to get around. It is also more gas-efficient and eco-conscious than a traditional passenger car. Unfortunately, riding a motorcycle comes with a few inherent injury risks, such as the lack of a protective metal shell. These risks become more pronounced when sharing the road with negligent and reckless motor vehicle drivers.

If you or a loved one were in a motorcycle accident and have serious injuries, you may be eligible for compensation. The driver that caused your wreck could be liable for damages.

Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

Unlike no-fault states, Arizona requires crash victims to determine fault before filing damage claims.

Regardless of how safe you are on a motorcycle, someone else’s negligence could cause a crash in Prescott Valley.

• Inattentive drivers. It is difficult enough to see the low profile of a motorcycle on Arizona’s roads; driver inattention and distraction can increase the risk of a driver crashing into a motorcyclist. Texting and driving is a significant cause of distraction-related motorcycle accidents.
• Reckless drivers. Reckless and dangerous driving habits by motor vehicle drivers such as speeding, racing, tailgating, drunk driving, and running red lights could endanger a motorcyclist’s life.
• Road hazards. Prescott Valley’s roads could contain defects such as potholes or loose gravel that threaten the safety of vulnerable road users. The city could be liable for motorcycle accidents involving road hazards.
