Motorcycle Accidents Are On the Rise
Our Lawyers Help Bike Accident Victims
Nationally, the number of motorcycle accident fatalities has more than doubled in the past decade, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Motorcycle ridership has also grown, but fatal crashes have increased faster than the growth in ridership.
Grim Statistics
In 2006 in Illinois, 132 people died in motorcycle accidents, and many more suffered serious injuries, including brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, head injuries, burns, multiple fractures, internal injuries and serious ankle and lower leg injuries.

Common Types of Motorcycle Accidents
Many motorcycle accidents occur because the other driver failed to see the motorcyclist. Drivers change lanes without checking behind them and hit motorcyclists. They fail to yield to motorcyclist who is legally turning left in front of them. Head on collisions are common.
