Motorcycle Crashes in Texas

Motorcyclists are more likely to die or suffer severe injuries in the event of a crash. Simply put, riders do not enjoy the same degree of safety as those traveling in passenger cars do. In Texas, the number of fatal motorbike accidents is steadily increasing with each passing year. In 2022, there were 2,422 motorcycle riders injured in the state, with more than 562 reported fatalities. Many drivers neglect to look out for motorcycle riders, which is one of many major contributing causes of serious motorcycle accidents. You should get in touch with an experienced lawyer who is prepared to defend your legal rights if you are severely injured in a motorcycle accident.

The number of motorcycle fatalities is at an all-time high. When riding a motorcycle on the road, you must always exercise extreme caution. Unfortunately, there are situations where collisions are unavoidable, and there is little you can do to protect yourself from injury at the hands of another motorist. At any angle, riders have very little protection from the impact, so motorcyclists are known to sustain severe or potentially fatal injuries in the event of a crash. It is key that you are ready to partner with a trained lawyer in order to pursue a full recovery after a life-changing collision.
