Bad Road Conditions Put Bikers at Risk
Whether you're slogging through nasty weather conditions or riding your
motorcycle on a poorly-maintained road, any number of problems can lead
to severe injuries.
The Dangers of Hazardous Roads
A sudden bump or pothole can cause you to lose control. Steep berm
drop-offs can lead to dangerous falls. Messy construction sites can
directly impact you as a motorcycle rider, since you're unprotected
against the chance of falling objects or large machines.
Timing is Critical in Motorcycle Accidents Caused by Bad Roads
State agencies and local municipalities are in charge of roadways. Many
of these agencies place time
limits on making injury claims.
Our motorcycle accident investigation
team will work fast to gather evidence before:
-
The ice melts away.
-
The pothole is filled.
-
The road is repaired.
-
The construction is completed.
