Motorcycle Accidents usually occur because of negligence and frequently involve personal injury law but can sometimes involve products liability law. Liability for accidents is generally determined using the rule that a less careful person involved in an accident must pay for at least some of the damages suffered by a more careful person. Common issues related to motorcycle accident litigation include traffic and registration law compliance, medical expenses, and liability determinations. Motorcycle accidents also involve unique insurance provisions. Motorcycle insurance is required by most states and can protect an injured rider against an underinsured or uninsured motorist.
