Motorcycle Accidents in Michigan

Motorcycle accidents in Michigan can lead to devastating injuries due to the lack of protection for riders. Each year, hundreds of motorcyclists are injured in collisions with passenger vehicles, often because drivers fail to see motorcycles or misjudge their speed.

Here are some common causes of motorcycle crashes:

• Failure to Yield to Motorcycles – Many motorcycle crashes occur when drivers fail to yield at intersections or while making left turns. Motorcycles are smaller and harder to spot, leading to dangerous collisions.
• Lane Changes Without Checking Blind Spots – Drivers who do not properly check their mirrors and blind spots before switching lanes can easily sideswipe a motorcyclist.
• Speeding – Excessive speed reduces reaction time for both drivers and motorcyclists. High-speed crashes often result in severe injuries or fatalities.
• Distracted Driving – Texting, eating, or adjusting the radio can take a driver’s attention off the road, making it more likely they will miss a nearby motorcycle.
• Road Hazards – Potholes, gravel, or uneven pavement pose greater dangers to motorcycles than to cars, making them more likely to crash.
