Accomplished Englewood Cliffs Motorcycle Accident Lawyer Fights For Victims Of Motorcycle Accidents In Bergen County And Throughout New Jersey

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), part of the U.S. Department of Transportation, there were more than 5,000 motorcyclists killed in accidents in 2019. Furthermore, the NHTSA reports that, “per vehicle miles traveled, motorcyclists are about 29 times more likely than people in passenger cars to die in a traffic crash.” If you were involved in a motorcycle crash, you should speak to an Englewood Cliffs motorcycle accident lawyer.

Motorcyclists are subject to hazards that are inherent with riding on the road with minimal protection, alongside larger vehicles and trucks. While motorcycle helmets provide some protection, the rider does not have an airbag or a metal shell to protect them from flying debris or another vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Motorcycle Accidents in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey

Will my insurance cover my injuries in a motorcycle accident?

How much time do I have to file a claim for a motorcycle accident in New Jersey?

Statutes of limitations are the legal timeframes for filing claims in the courts. In New Jersey, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims — such as a motorcycle accident claim — is two years from the time the accident took place. Statutes of limitations are important, firm deadlines that must be adhered to if you are trying to recover compensation for your motorcycle accident injuries and other losses.

How dangerous are motorcycles?

Riding a motorcycle is inherently hazardous due to the lack of physical protection that automobile drivers have. Without a roof, doors, airbags, and seat belts, motorcycle riders are much more exposed to the vehicles around them. These other vehicles are larger, heavy, and more stable than a motorcycle. Motorcycles do offer some capabilities that are not present with cars and trucks, such as the ability to quickly maneuver, to stop quickly, and to swerve on short notice to avoid hitting something or someone.

How do many motorcycle crashes happen?

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), of the motorcycle riders that were involved in fatal accidents in 2019, 30% were riding motorcycles without valid motorcycle licenses. In New Jersey, all residents operating a motorcycle must have a motorcycle license or a motorcycle endorsement on their drivers’ license. Motorcycles must be titled, registered, and properly insured. Other common causes of motorcycle accidents include poor road conditions, driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol or drugs, driver inexperience, motorists turning into the path of a motorcycle, and motorcyclists riding in another driver’s blind spot.
