Lake Worth Motorcycle Accident Lawyers

Knowledgable Motorcycle Crash Injury Attorneys in Lake Worth, FL Fight for Clients Injured in Motorcycle Accidents in Palm Beach County and Throughout Florida

Motorcycles are a common and deservedly well-enjoyed mode of transportation in South Florida. But when a motorcycle accident occurs, the odds that the accident will result in a fatality are high, as a motorcycle offers little protection from cars, trucks, and the other large, heavy vehicles that crisscross South Florida’s roads. If the rider isn’t wearing a helmet the odds of traumatic brain injury or fatal injury escalate even further. That’s why it’s imperative for you and your fellow motorcyclists to ride defensively and wear all recommended protective gear. But it also helps to know which scenarios are most likely to result in an accident. At Gonzalez & Cartwright, P.A., Lake Worth motorcycle accident lawyers has long since learned that the so-called left turn motorcycle accident is one of the most common motorcycle accident scenarios.

Typically what happens in one of these accidents is that the rider is proceeding straight when an automobile or truck makes a left turn in front of the oncoming cyclist. Oftentimes this occurs at an intersection (which is where most motorcycle accidents occur), with the automobile or truck violating the motorcycle’s right of way (and sometimes violating traffic signals as well).

As such it’s a good idea to slow down and exercise additional caution when approaching any intersection. You should always be aware of the possibility of a car turning in front of you, even when they haven’t signaled an intention to turn. If it’s dark or rainy the chances of this happening rise further, so inclement warrants an even greater degree of caution.

Of course, if you have already been involved in a left turn motorcycle accident or another type of motorcycle crash in Lake Worth, it’s advisable to contact our Lake Worth motorcycle accident lawyers as soon as possible.
