New York Motorcycle Accidents
Many New Yorkers like to ride, but city roads can be a dangerous place for a motorcyclist. Motorcycle riders in New York City are roughly twice as likely to be killed in crashes than riders outside of the city. A recent study found that motorcyclists involved in car accidents claimed the lives of 141 people annually on average in New York. Males make up the majority of motorcycle rider fatalities in the city, and the majority of accidents involve the fault of another motor vehicle and a motorcycle rider. Statistics show that riders are nearly 26 times more likely to be killed in a crash, and almost 80 percent of motorcycle accidents end in death or injury. You may be able to pursue a full recovery after a serious crash by pursuing a strong personal injury claim with the help of a competent legal team.
