The Unthinkable Happens
Understanding Motorcycle Accidents
A motorcycle accident can be a life-altering experience, leaving victims with severe injuries, mounting medical bills, and emotional trauma. Unlike other motor vehicles, motorcycles offer little protection to riders, leaving them vulnerable to catastrophic harm in the event of a collision.
The NHTSA reports that 5,579 motorcyclists were killed in accidents in 2020, which accounted for 14% of all traffic fatalities during that year. This was an 11% year-over-year increase from 2019 and was the highest number of motorcycle fatalities since the NHTSA first began reporting crash data through the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) in 1975. According to the NHTSA, an estimated 82,528 motorcyclists sustained injuries in accidents in 2020, which was a 2% year-over-year decrease from 2019.
The NHTSA reports that an estimated 80% of motorcycle crashes result in injuries or deaths. By comparison, 20% of car accidents result in injuries or deaths.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is lane splitting legal in California?
Yes. California formally allows lane splitting, so a rider who was lane splitting is not automatically at fault for a crash.
Can I recover if I was not wearing a helmet?
Possibly. Not wearing a helmet does not automatically bar your claim, though it can affect certain damages. Fault is evaluated case by case under comparative negligence.
How long do I have to file a motorcycle accident claim?
Usually two years from the date of the crash in California. Earlier is better so evidence can be preserved.
