Part of the thrill of riding a motorcycle is the feeling of freedom it provides. There is very little that comes between you and the open road when you are on your bike. The lack of protection around riders contributes to the thrill. It also accounts for the severity of injuries that bikers suffer in motorcycle accidents.

If you or someone you love has been injured in a bike wreck in Atlantic City, Galloway, Egg Harbor, NJ, or anywhere else in South Jersey, please contact the Law Offices of Richard A. Stoloff online or by phone today. We offer a free initial consultation and case evaluation with no obligation. You will pay nothing upfront and no legal fees until we obtain financial compensation for your personal injury claim.

Common Injuries from NJ Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcycle accidents can result in extremely serious injuries, including:

  • Fractures, especially broken arms and legs
  • Head injuries
  • Brain injuries
  • Neck injuries
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Paralysis
  • Internal injuries
  • Road rash (severe abrasions)
  • Burns
  • Injuries requiring amputation

A study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) found that lower extremity injuries were the most common motorcycle accident-related injuries treated in U.S. trauma centers. Upper extremity and head injuries, respectively, were the next most common. Injuries to the head, chest, and abdomen were less frequent but more severe than injuries to extremities. In addition to causing serious injuries, motorcycle accidents can result in wrongful death.

Causes of Motorcycle Accidents in New Jersey

Many motorcycle accidents are caused not by the riders, but by the negligence and carelessness of other drivers. Common causes of accidents on NJ roads include:

  • Drivers turning left in front of an oncoming motorcycle
  • Drivers turning left when a motorcycle is passing the car
  • Drivers changing lanes without noticing that a motorcyclist already occupies the lane
  • Drivers clipping motorcycles that are approaching in the opposite direction

Drivers of other vehicles often say they never saw the biker. That is not an adequate defense. It is every driver’s responsibility to be aware of other vehicles on the road, including motorcycles.
