Motorcycle accidents are often much more severe than collisions between passenger vehicles. Riders have little that protects them from the impact of a crash, which dramatically increases the risk of serious injury. They are roughly 28 times more likely to die in a crash compared to a passenger in a car, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Understanding motorcycle accident injuries
Due to the exposed nature of motorcyclists, a rider can suffer injuries on any part of their body. These often result from the initial collision with the other vehicle, but they could also stem from a rider being thrown from their bike and striking the ground.
One of the injuries synonymous with motorcycle accidents is road rash– burn-like injuries to the skin that can occur when a rider is thrown from their bike. It is both common and painful, but it is not the most severe injury associated with motorcycle accidents. Some of the others include:
- Broken bones
- Internal bleeding
- Cuts and bruises
- Skull fractures
- Concussions and other traumatic brain injuries
- Amputation
- Spinal cord injuries
- Sprains and strains
Each of these requires time and money to heal. A successful personal injury lawsuit will provide you with the financial resources to begin rebuilding your life.
