Hazardous road conditions for motorcyclists
It's a fact - bad roads can and do cause motorcycle accidents. In many states, thousands of injury claims have been made against the state's Department of Transportation or similar agency. These claims cite the dangerous and defective conditions of state roadways and other property as the cause for the accidents. Road defects can be especially hazardous for motorcycles.
In addition to state agencies, local municipalities also have thousands of miles of roadway under their maintenance and control. In some states, they too are legally responsible for dangerous and defective conditions that exist on their roads.
Timing is critical in motorcycle accident injuries
Hazardous road legal cases are very complex. Many states have time limits involved in these types of cases so, it is important that an investigation be started quickly. Often the evidence disappears: the ice melts, the road is fixed, the construction is completed, etc. In addition, these cases are difficult to prove and can vary from state to state. There may be a need to hire engineers, accident reconstruction experts or other experts to prove and win these type of motorcycle injury cases. Our Law Firm can help you determine if you have a motorcycle injury claim due to a hazardous road.
