Common Injuries Motorcyclists Suffer in California Crashes
Motorcycle crashes can result in broken bones, road rash, and head injuries. Riders do not have the same protection as occupants of vehicles, which increases the risk of impact. Even a low-speed crash can lead to fractures or concussions.
Some injuries may not show symptoms right away. Internal trauma, soft tissue damage, and spinal strain can develop hours after the accident. Prompt medical evaluation helps identify these conditions and creates a clear record of treatment.
A motorcycle accident lawyer can review medical records and accident reports to determine what compensation may be available.
