What to Do After a Motorcycle Accident

The moments after a motorcycle accident can be overwhelming and extremely stressful, especially if you or anyone else was seriously hurt. You should make every effort to stay calm and take steps to protect your rights.

After suffering injuries in a motorcycle collision that wasn’t your fault, you should:

Get the police involved. The police will write a report about the accident and make a record of the incident. This can serve as an extremely important piece of evidence in your personal injury claim.
Don’t accept blame for the accident. A motorcycle accident can happen fast, and all of the facts may not be immediately apparent in the chaos that follows. Equipment can fail at the wrong time, road conditions can cause a vehicle to move incorrectly, and many other causes may have resulted in the accident. Stay calm and don’t accept blame for the accident, no matter what. Remember that anything you say can be used against you, so limit unnecessary conversation and stay silent as much as possible.
Exchange information with the other driver. You will need the other driver’s name, address, phone number, license information, vehicle information (including plate number), and insurance details.
Get contact information for any witnesses to the accident. Motorcycle accident witnesses may leave the scene of an accident soon after it happens, but their knowledge can be an important piece of a motorcycle accident claim. Get information from them whenever possible so they can be contacted later if needed.
Take plenty of photographs of the accident scene and the surrounding areas. The more photos, the better. Be sure to capture your visible injuries and damage to your vehicle. Accident details like debris and skid marks can be very important for investigators. Information about the surroundings at the time of the collision, such as signs and weather conditions, can also help tell important stories.
Seek medical attention. Even if you feel okay right after the crash, it’s still very important to get a full medical evaluation. Many injuries may take time to show up. A medical exam can catch injuries before they become bigger problems, and it can also link them to the crash.
Don’t make any recorded statements to insurance companies before speaking to an attorney. After an accident, you may be confused about what happened. Any recorded statements made to insurance companies can be used as evidence in your claim, so get legal advice before proceeding.
Speak with a motorcycle accident attorney as soon as you can. After an accident, you may face calls from insurance companies and others. Our lawyers can act as your intermediary and help protect your rights.

Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

Many motorcycle accidents are the result of negligence. When you suffer injuries in a motorcycle accident because of negligence, you can take legal action against the responsible party and seek compensation for damages. Our team at KRW Lawyers can investigate your motorcycle accident to determine who is at fault and identify avenues of recovery.

Many motorcycle accidents are the result of:

Distracted driving. Car drivers who use their phones, manage in-vehicle entertainment systems, or even engage in conversation may fail to notice motorcyclists on the road.
Failure to check blind spots. Many motorcycle accidents occur because drivers fail to properly check their blind spots before changing lanes or turning. Motorcycles are smaller and less visible than cars, making them easy to miss without an intentional effort to look.
Excessive speeding. Excessive speed often leads to reduced reaction times. Drivers traveling above the speed limit may struggle to stop in time to avoid a collision with a motorcyclist.
Driving under the influence. Alcohol or drug impairment drastically affects reaction time, decision-making, and coordination, making accidents more likely.
Failing to yield the right of way. Many accidents occur at intersections, where drivers neglect to yield to motorcycles. Assumptions about a motorcyclist’s speed or right of way can result in devastating crashes.
Tailgating. If a car is tailgating a motorcyclist, the driver may not have enough time to react if the motorcyclist needs to brake suddenly, leading to rear-end collisions.
Dooring. Dooring occurs when a driver or passenger in a parked vehicle opens a door into the path of an oncoming motorcyclist. This unexpected obstacle can cause severe accidents because motorcyclists frequently have little time to react.
Defective vehicle components. Faulty brakes, tires with insufficient tread, or malfunctioning lights on a vehicle can create hazardous conditions on the road. For example, defective brake lights may fail to alert motorcyclists to a sudden stop, increasing the likelihood of a rear-end collision. If you think a defective component may have been behind your crash, our San Antonio motorcycle accident lawyers can investigate.

TALK TO US ABOUT YOUR CASE

Common Injuries in Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists tend to face a substantially higher risk of catastrophic harm on the road compared to other types of motorists. Unlike car or truck drivers who are protected by the structural framework, airbags, and seatbelts of their vehicles, motorcyclists rely solely on their protective gear and riding skills. The lack of a physical barrier exposes them directly to the force of a collision or crash.

Motorcycle collisions can cause many types of serious injuries, including:

Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs). Even though helmets can significantly reduce the risk of sustaining head injuries, they cannot eliminate it entirely. A motorcyclist may sustain a TBI if their head strikes the pavement, another vehicle, or a stationary object during a crash. These injuries range from concussions to severe brain damage and can result in permanent cognitive impairments, memory loss, or difficulty with speech and motor skills. Long-term consequences may include the need for lifelong medical care, reduced quality of life, and an inability to return to work.
Spinal cord injuries. The high impact associated with motorcycle crashes frequently leads to spinal cord damage, which can cause partial or complete paralysis. Riders may experience anything from herniated discs to devastating injuries that sever the spinal cord. Depending on the severity and location of the injury, motorcyclists may lose mobility in their lower body (paraplegia) or their entire body below the neck (quadriplegia). These injuries may require extensive rehabilitation, and the financial burden of medical equipment, home modifications, and care can be overwhelming.

Fractures and broken bones. Motorcyclists frequently suffer fractures and broken bones during an accident. Commonly fractured areas include limbs, ribs, and the collarbone, as riders often try to break their fall or may become pinned beneath their bikes. Compound fractures, where the bone pierces the skin, are especially dangerous, as they pose a high risk of infection. While bones typically heal over time, serious breaks could require surgery, physical therapy, or lead to chronic pain and reduced mobility.
Road rash. Road rash occurs when a motorcyclist's skin scrapes against the pavement during a crash. This can happen when a rider is thrown from their bike and skids across the ground. While mild cases may only involve superficial scrapes, more severe road rash can strip away layers of skin down to the muscle or bone. Without proper treatment, road rash can lead to infections, scarring, and limited motion in the affected area.
Internal injuries. The impact of a collision can cause significant trauma to internal organs, leading to internal bleeding or damage to the liver, lungs, or kidneys. These injuries can occur when a rider is struck by a blunt object, crushed under their bike, or hit by another vehicle. Unlike visible wounds, internal injuries may not always be immediately apparent, making prompt medical evaluation crucial. Without timely treatment, internal injuries can result in organ failure or death.
Facial and dental injuries. Motorcycle accidents can lead to lacerations, broken jaws, shattered teeth, or fractures to the cheekbone and nose. These injuries may require multiple reconstructive surgeries and dental procedures. Apart from the physical pain, facial injuries can also cause lasting emotional trauma due to significant changes in appearance.

The life-altering nature of these injuries underlines the need for just compensation when a motorcycle accident wasn’t your fault. Our San Antonio motorcycle accident attorneys can fight to get you every dollar you deserve.
