Who Is Liable for Your Motorcycle Wreck Injuries in Delaware?
Most motorcycle crashes result from negligent behavior by one or more vehicle drivers. Common negligence-based causes of motorcycle accidents include:
- Disobeying traffic laws
- Unsafe lane changes
- Improper turns
- Lane splitting
- Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
- Speeding or driving too fast for current weather conditions
- Distracted driving
If one of these actions or another risky behavior caused your motorcycle accident, the negligent driver is likely liable for your injuries. In some situations, another party may be at fault, such as:
- The negligent driver’s employer, if they were driving as part of their work duties
- A motorcycle manufacturer, if defective parts caused the crash
- A motorcycle mechanic, if a mechanical issue caused the accident
Your Delaware motorcycle accident lawyer will gather evidence such as the police report, driving records, witness statements, and accident scene photos or video footage to assign liability. They will then negotiate with the responsible party’s insurance carrier for a fair settlement. If they cannot settle your claim, they will not hesitate to fight for your rights in court.
