Fatal Motorcycle Accidents in California
Statistics from 2019 show them nearly 475 people lost their lives as a result of motorcycle accidents in the state of California. These accidents take place for a variety of reasons. Common causes of fatal motorcycle crashes that we see include:
- Speeding: A common cause of car crashes is speeding, which can be caused by a number of factors, including being over the speed limit or even racing other vehicles.
- Impairment: Driving while impaired by drugs or alcohol can also lead to a car crash. Driving while under the influence can make it difficult to control your vehicle.
- Distractions: Texting, talking on the phone, eating, or talking to other people in the vehicle are major causes of car crashes. Not only is it dangerous to your own safety, but it also increases the chances that someone else will be injured in a crash.
- Failing to yield: If you fail to yield the right of way when turning at an intersection, you could end up causing a car crash. Likewise, failing to stop at a stop sign or crosswalk can also lead to a crash.
- Blindspot crashes: One of the most dangerous types of car crashes is a blindspot crash. In these cases, the driver doesn’t see someone who has crossed into their path ahead, and they end up crashing into them.
Depending on the circumstances of the car accident, survivors may be able to recover a variety of damages. Some of the more common types of damages include economic losses, funeral arrangements, and emotional trauma.
