Motorcycles can be harder to see.
March 52010
As a Los Angeles Personal injury attorney I’ve seen many horrible motorcycle accidents many of which could have been avoided. Motorcycles can be hard to see on the roadway sometimes. In fact, a majority of motorcycle accidents occur when other vehicles are making a left turn. Very often, drivers of larger vehicles – be it cars, pickup trucks, SUVs or big rigs – fail to consciously look out for motorcyclists. They are on the lookout for larger vehicles, but often miss seeing an oncoming motorcycle. Such collisions at street intersections can be deadly for motorcyclists.
Keep your eyes open and be on the lookout for smaller roadway vehicles.
