Frequently, drivers of cars and trucks simply do not see motorcyclists. As drivers of larger vehicles, they subconsciously are looking only for vehicles the same size as the vehicle they are driving. After a collision, the driver of the car or truck will often say the motorcyclist "came out of nowhere." In fact, the motorcyclist came from "somewhere" and that "somewhere" was a place where the other driver wasn't looking and wasn't paying attention to in violation of the laws regarding rights of way of motorcyclists.

Motorcycle accidents frequently result in serious bodily injury, such as spinal cord injury fractures, and brain injuries.

Symptoms of a crash-related traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) may take months to appear. Yet a TBI can rob you of your memory and mental abilities.

We urge you not to speak with representatives of an insurance company about your injuries or a settlement without first discussing your case with an experienced motorcycle accident attorney such as David G. Smith. It costs you nothing to learn if we can be of assistance to you. Please contact us today.
