What to do if you are involved in a motorcycle accident?
Motorcycle accidents, as you can imagine, are terrifying. When your whole body is exposed to the danger of a collision, the injuries tend to be more severe and longer lasting. In an instant, the rider's life can change and the shock of a motorcycle accident may have you scrambling on what to do next. If possible, the rider should get out of harms way by moving to a safe location and follow the steps listed below.
Gather Evidence
Evidence from the accident scene can be used to determine who is at fault and ensure your compensation is coming from the liable party. Exchanging the names, addresses, phone numbers, driver's license numbers, and insurance information of all parties involved in the car accident is important. This information can be obtained very quickly, especially if you snap a picture of the driver's license, and insurance information with your phone. While your phone is out, do not forget to take pictures of the vehicles and the surrounding scene of the accident.
Obtain a Police Report
A police report can be a crucial piece of evidence a little later in your case. Police reports may contain a determination of liability and sometimes the police report is the difference between having a winning case or not. Thus, it is important to call the police to the scene of the accident.
Dont Hesitate to Get Medical Help
Injuries from a motorcycle accident can be severe and may even require you to be transported to the Emergency Room via an ambulance. As mentioned above, the exposed rider has direct contact to his or her body, especially the head, leaving him/her very susceptible to suffer a traumatic brain injury among other serious injuries. Other injuries might be less severe and take time to set it. Thus, it is important to seek medical help immediately after an accident to get a professional diagnosis.
