Frequently Asked Questions About Motorcycle Accident Injuries

Motorcycle accidents can often cause injuries that are much more severe than vehicle accidents due to the level of exposure that a motorcycle rider experiences compared to someone who is in an automobile. Factors that affect motorcycle accident litigation also differ from state to state. For example, Tennessee has a universal helmet law, which requires all motorcycle riders to wear a helmet. Kentucky, on the other hand, only has a partial helmet law, and only requires riders under the age of 21 to wear a helmet, leaving adult riders free to decide whether or not to wear a helmet. Whether your state requires you to wear a helmet—and whether you were actually wearing that helmet at the time of your accident—can have an impact on your case. If you weren’t wearing a helmet at the time of your injury and your case goes to trial, it can be difficult to convince a biased judge or jury that the other party was solely at fault for your injury.

Insurance can also be a hassle to deal with after a motorcycle accident. It’s a good idea to speak with an accident lawyer to discuss your policy to see if you are covered in the event of a motorcycle accident. Even if you are covered, the extensive injuries that motorcyclists often endure during an accident may not be fully covered by an insurance settlement. Our personal injury lawyers are happy to discuss the specifics of your case with you absolutely free of charge. Call or fill out a case evaluation form, and one of our team members will get in touch with you at a time that works with your schedule.

The following types of damages may be awarded in a personal injury lawsuit involving motorcycles:

Medical Damages
If you were injured in an accident while riding a motorcycle, you may be eligible to receive compensation to cover your medical bills. This compensation can cover costs such as:

  • Hospital bills that you incurred as a result of your accident
  • Surgeries you might have undergone because of your injuries
  • Long-term care if your injury was particularly severe
  • Rehabilitation and physical therapy to recover after your accident
  • Medical equipment you might need after your accident, such as a walker or wheelchair
  • Prescription medication that you may require after your accident

Non-Economic Damages from Motorcycle Accidents:
If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident, then you know that the toll that the accident takes on you can be devastating in ways that aren’t necessarily financial. After a debilitating accident, you may become depressed, have trouble sleeping or develop extreme anxiety. You may be able to recover for this emotional distress by filing a personal injury suit. You may also be able to recover for loss of consortium, which compensates your spouse for the loss of companionship, sexual relations, and comfort that you were able to provide before your accident.

Lost Earnings Claims for Motorcycle Accidents:
After a motorcycle accident, it can take weeks or even months to heal if a complete recovery is ever possible. This recovery can mean that you are no longer able to work to support yourself or your family. If you have had to give up your job, either temporarily or permanently, then your lost earnings, including earnings that you could have made in the future if you were able to work, may be recoverable in a personal injury lawsuit.

Punitive Damages For Motorcycle Accidents:
If the person who caused your accident did something that was particularly unacceptable that caused the accident, then you may be able to get a separate award of punitive damages. This type of award is not necessarily meant to compensate you for any injury, but instead, is meant to punish the person for their actions.
