Many vehicle accidents involve motorcycles. In motorcycle accidents, the chance of injury is extremely high: more than 98%. The most deadly injuries were to the head and chest, although other types of injury occur, too.
About 3/4 of motorcycle accidents are collisions, usually with a car. In about 2/3 of these cases, the driver of the passenger vehicles were at fault, usually because they did not see the motorcycle until it was too late. Many of these situations require the help of a personal injury attorney to settle.
