What should you do to preserve your rights?
First, get the medical care you need. Then, call the Glenn Law Firm. The sooner we can begin preserving the evidence, the better. In motorcycle wrecks it is important to secure the motorcycle just as it is following the collision. By all means, make sure the motorcycle is not destroyed or sold at auction to pay towing or storage charges. We will get the motorcycle transported to a safe spot for investigation and preservation. Contact us now to preserve your rights.
Common causes of motorcycle collisions
Other drivers don’t understand motorcycles and how they work. Many people think of motorcycles as bicycles and believe they are stopped and maneuvered just like a bike. Common causes of motorcycle wrecks that indicate negligent operation of a vehicle by the other driver include:
* failing to devote full time and attention to driving
* following a motorcycle too closely
* pulling into the roadway in front of a motorcyclist
* failing to yield the right-of-way at intersections or when changing lanes
* turning left in front of a motorcycle
Many times the at fault driver will say “I never saw the motorcycle”. This is typical of the lack of respect some drivers show to motorcyclists. They simply don’t treat them as equals on the road. At the Glenn Law Firm, we understand what it is like to ride. David M. Glenn has had a motorcycle license for more than thirty years. We are experienced in handling all types of personal injury claims and committed to helping you get all of the compensation you are entitled to receive. The Glenn Law Firm is dedicated to helping you recover your losses fully.
Motorcycle wrecks
In 2006, over 4,800 people died in motorcycle wrecks according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Fatalities involving motorcycles account for more than ten per cent of our traffic deaths. The NHTSA estimates that a motorcyclist is 34 times more likely than someone in a car to be killed on the road. Our Dallas-Fort Worth and Texas motorcycle lawyers can help you and your family with all of your legal questions following a serious personal injury or wrongful death as the result of a motorcycle wreck.
Under the law, motorcyclists should enjoy all of the driving privileges of those operating cars. Unfortunately, many people are just not aware of what it means to safely share the road with a motorcycle. That is no excuse, it is negligence. The Glenn Law Firm knows your rights and will help to ensure they are protected fully. While all cases are different, you may have a claim for all medical expenses including medical treatment in the future, therapy and rehabilitation, lost wages and earning capacity, and your emotional damages for pain, suffering and physical limitations. Contact us now to schedule your free consultation. If necessary, we will come to your home or the hospital.
