Motorcycle Accident FAQs

A car and motorcycle involved in a crash on a highway, with debris scattered across the road.
  • Fault is determined by analyzing roadway evidence, police reports, witness statements, and sometimes accident reconstruction. Bias against motorcyclists can impact how insurers view a case, so having an attorney who understands these challenges is crucial.

  • Yes. While helmet use may affect certain aspects of your claim, it does not automatically prevent you from recovering compensation. Indiana’s comparative fault laws allow injured riders to pursue damages as long as they were not more than 50% at fault.

  • Motorcyclists lack the protection of a vehicle frame, airbags, and other safety features. Even low-speed crashes can cause traumatic brain injuries, fractures, road rash, or spinal damage. More serious injuries often mean higher medical bills, and the need for experienced legal advocacy.
