If you have ever been involved in a motorcycle accident, you know how scary and stressful it can be. Motorcyclists should be prepared and know what to do if an accident happens. Below are some things motorcyclists and passengers should be mindful of.
Tips for Motorcyclists
Motorcyclists can soften the blow of an accident by practicing safe riding techniques, such as wearing a helmet and proper biker attire. Always ride the motorcycle with caution. In addition to riding defensively, make sure you have insurance that is conducive for motorcycle accidents.
Tips for Passengers
Passengers involved in motorcycle accidents tend to feel helpless, as they are not in control of the vehicle. Nonetheless, it is important for passengers to realize that they are not powerless in the eyes of the law. Some passengers do not file a personal injury claim because they think they will penalize the motorcyclist. This is not always the case. In fact, your insurance company usually covers the cost.
