FRESNO MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT INJURIES CAUSED BY NEGLIGENCE

Car and truck drivers often claim they never saw the motorcycle before impact. In many cases, the motorcycle rider followed the road rules, but the other driver did not pay proper attention to objects in the rearview mirror or check blind spots. Our Fresno motorcycle accident lawyers built a solid case against the other driver, showing how they violated their duty of care and negligently caused your injuries.

Typical cases of driver negligence that cause motorcycle accidents include:

Unsafe lane changes
Running stop signs and lights
Broadside and rear-end collisions
Speeding vehicles
Drunk and impaired drivers
Distracted drivers

Demonstrating driver negligence is just the first step our Fresno motorcycle accident attorneys take. Next, you want to prove that you operated your motorcycle with due care.

Sometimes, police and courts blame riders for their bike’s perfectly legal operation. “Lane splitting” refers to moving forward in traffic between two other vehicles. This technique does not break any traffic laws; however, splitting lanes before an accident can lead to assumptions of rider negligence and fault in a Fresno motorcycle accident lawsuit. An experienced motorcycle accident lawyer in Fresno, like Mr. Rivas, can assess your rights from the outset and prevent a negligent driver from pointing the finger at you to avoid their responsibility.
