LA County Single Motorcycle Accident Lawyer
A common misconception is that motorcycle accidents always involve impacts with another vehicle in addition to the motorcycle. This is not always the case, as frequently a motorcycle accident is the result of the motorcycle driver attempting to get out of the way of another vehicle. This could be due to the other vehicle being driven by a reckless driver, an intoxicated driver or an inattentive driver. In an effort to avoid being hit, the motorcyclist may ultimately be involved in a single motorcycle accident without a collision. The resulting crash does not automatically mean that the motorcycle operator was at fault.

It is up to the motorcycle rider to avoid being hit by drivers who may not be giving their full attention to the road. It is common that in an effort to avoid an accident you may ultimately collide with other objects on the street or roadway. These can include: buildings, trees, parked cars, guardrails, street signs and medians.
