While hundreds of people ride motorcycles in Florida each day, there are some significant risks to riding. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that motorcyclists are more than 30 times as likely as other motorists to die in a wreck and are five times more likely than those in passenger cars to get hurt in a crash.
Riders have a high risk of serious injury or death because a motorcycle provides no real protection in a crash and because a rider and passenger are likely to be thrown off it in a crash. The potential for a collision is exacerbated by the fact that many motorists don’t know or understand how to safely share the road with motorcyclists.
When a West Palm Beach driver makes a mistake, breaks a safety rule or is unreasonably careless in a way that leads to a mishap, that driver can be considered legally responsible for harm that results. A lawyer at Steinger, Greene & Feiner can assist victims or their loved ones in making a claim for damages.
How Much Is My Claim Worth?
Drivers who cause motorcycle crashes are responsible for ensuring that accident victims do not suffer financial hardship as well. Not only that, but a driver who is to blame for a crash can also be required to compensate victims or surviving family members for non-financial losses.
If a motorist causes a motorcycle accident by speeding, failure to yield, tailgating or other negligent and dangerous behavior, the at-faulty party can be required to pay a victim or his or her surviving family members to cover or compensate for:
Medical bills (including those likely to be incurred in the future)
Lost income/wages (including a lifetime of lost financial support if the motorcyclist was killed and surviving family members are making a wrongful death claim)
Pain and suffering damages
Emotional distress damages
Funeral expense costs
Loss of companionship (a type of wrongful death damage for surviving family members)
Drivers are required to pay these costs in order to make accident victims “whole” for the harm they have endured.

Pursuing a Claim
It is up to the motorcyclist who was hurt to pursue a claim for compensation. Those hurt in an accident can file an injury lawsuit and/or settle the case outside of court by agreeing to accept a payment from the insurance company in exchange for giving up the right to sue. Family members of those killed in wrecks will have a similar choice of either pursuing a wrongful death claim or settling outside of court.
In either case, it is prudent to have a West Palm Beach lawyer advising you, dealing with the insurance company or court on your behalf, and fighting to get you full and fair compensation for your loss.
