Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists are far more likely to suffer significant personal injuries when involved in traffic accidents than drivers or passengers of cars and trucks. According to the Connecticut Department of Transportation, more than 50 motorcyclists lose their lives on Connecticut roadways every year. In 2022, there were 62 motorcycle fatalities in Connecticut, the highest number in over 30 years.

The aftermath of a Connecticut motorcycle accident can be extremely challenging if you or your loved one is unable to work due to accident-related injuries and are amassing thousands of dollars in medical bills. Depending on the severity of the Connecticut motorcycle accident, you or your loved one could be left with permanent injuries or impairments that may make it impossible to return to work.

Connecticut motorcycle riders face dangerous exposure as they have little protection between them and the other vehicle or the pavement. When a motorcyclist crashes with a larger motor vehicle, injured motorcyclists in Connecticut can suffer severe injuries such as:

• Traumatic brain injury
• Spinal cord damage
• Broken bones
• Soft tissue damage, including sprains and strains
• Organ damage
• Fractures 
• Lacerations
• Whiplash
• Road rash
