Motorcyclists are always at a greater risk of injury than their counterparts who are riding in cars, trucks, buses, and vans.
This is especially true in the case of multiple-vehicle collisions involving one motorcycle and one or more automobiles.
The likelihood of these crashes increases considerably in the midst of heavy traffic, as many drivers fail to recognize that motorcyclists have an equal right to the roadway and may not permit them adequate space when passing or engaging in other driving maneuvers.
To limit the risk of being caught in a preventable motorcycle accident, motorcyclists should ensure that they are well-educated and prepared to meet the demands of riding safely in traffic.
Even the most skilled rider, however, may fall prey to the negligent or reckless driving of another party.
A motorcycle accident victim may be able to file a civil lawsuit against the person who caused a crash, and a successful legal compensation may result in the awarding of financial compensation for medical bills, motorcycle repairs, and other considerations.
Helpful Hints for Motorcycle Safety There can be no excusing the negligent operation of a motor vehicle because such behavior can lead to serious injuries or tragically preventable deaths.
To lessen the likelihood that you will be caught up in an accident due to dense traffic, consider the following helpful hints for motorcycle safety:

• Ensure that your lights are properly functioning and used when appropriate
• Stay away from the edge of the roadway
• Do not attempt to cut between two cars in adjacent lanes
• Leave plenty of braking room ahead of you
• Wearing a helmet and other appropriate safety gear can reduce the severity of injuries
