Causes of Motorcycle Accidents in Pompano Beach > Why Choose Elstein Legal?>

Motorcyclists are widely referred to as “vulnerable road users”. This means that they are easily injured or killed when driving on a road space that is dominated by cars and trucks. Currently, there is no law in place to offer additional protection to vulnerable road users in Florida. If you were in a Pompano Beach motorcycle accident, it is best to contact an experienced attorney.

Brian L. Elstein offers top-notch legal counsel for Florida motorcycle accident victims with no up-front costs. When you work with Elstein Legal, you will not have to pay anything unless you win your case or reach a settlement. To learn more about how we can help, schedule a free consultation today.

Causes of Motorcycle Accidents in Pompano Beach

According to the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, there are over 10,000 motorcycle crashes per year in Florida and over 500 fatalities per year as a result of those accidents. Below are some of the most common causes:

  • Speeding. When either a motor vehicle or motorcycle rider drives too fast, the risk of accidents and injuries increases significantly.
  • Driving under the influence. Operating a motorcycle or other motor vehicle under the influence of drugs or alcohol is a dangerous practice that kills many people each year. If you are injured in an accident and the insurance company determines that you were intoxicated while driving, they could deny your claim.
  • Lane splitting. Florida’s traffic control laws state that all motorcycles are entitled to the full use of a lane. This means that vehicles cannot drive in a way that deprives a motorcycle of full use of a lane, and motorcyclists cannot overtake a vehicle in the same lane. Doing this can put both drivers in serious danger.
  • Road conditions: Motorcyclists are far more likely to get injured when driving in adverse weather and dangerous road conditions. Speeding and other reckless behavior increase the chance of accidents and injury during such conditions.

No matter what factors contributed to your crash, one of your first steps should be to find a skilled law firm in Pompano Beach.
