Texas Fatal Motorcycle Accidents

Riding a motorcycle is a fantastic feeling, and it is a pastime enjoyed by many Texas residents. Unfortunately, riders are greatly exposed in the event of a traffic accident. The road can be a dangerous place, and many drivers fail to look out for those riding motorcycles. The majority of crashes are caused by driver error, and motorcycle accidents can be life-changing. Statistics show that more than 80 percent of motorcycle crashes result in death or injury, and riders are almost 26 more likely to be killed in the event of a collision. There were 562 people killed and 2,422 injured in Texas motorcycle accidents in 2022 alone, according to statistics from the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). More than half of these accidents involved other vehicles. Almost 45 percent of motorcycle fatalities involve riders without helmets, greatly increasing the risk of a deadly accident. 

Handling the consequences of a deadly motorcycle crash can be hard on your own. It is even harder to cope with if you later find out that someone else’s reckless actions were to blame.
