Motorcycle accidents in the United States take the lives of thousands of people every year. Due to the size of these vehicles and the nature in which they are occupied, individuals who are using motorcycles are more likely to suffer severe injuries in collisions. Like pedestrians, motorcyclists have minimal protection during accidents. As a result, they are likely to suffer trauma to the head, severe internal organ injuries, and other injuries that could ultimately take their lives.
After losing a loved one due to a fatal accident, families often struggle to move forward. It is impossible to prepare for the impact that a fatal accident will have on a family. The mental and emotional consequences of a fatal collision are only made worse by the financial burdens that come with the sudden and unexpected loss of a loved one.
