Miller Injury Attorneys recently settled a motorcycle accident resulting in severe injuries to the rider. The accident occurred when a car pulled directly into the path of our client as he rode his motorcycle down a city street traveling at 45 mph. The impact caused our client to fly over 45 feet and land on the pavement.
The practical issue related to the amount of insurance that the at-fault driver had, given the over $700,000 in medical bills incurred by our client. This issue often arises in motorcycle accidents due to the fact that the minimum required liability insurance is only $15,000.
Because riders are not protected by the metal "shell" of a car, motorcycle accidents unfortunately result in multiple and severe injuries. It is important that motorcycle riders wear the appropriate protective gear when riding and make sure that their motorcycle insurance coverage includes uninsured/underinsured (UM/UIM) coverage in the unfortunate event they are injured by a driver who has little or no insurance coverage.
