http://bikerlawyer.net/blog/index.php?title=what_do_you_do_if_you_are_in_a_motorcycl&more;=1&c;=1&tb;=1&pb;=1 Being in a motorcycle accident can be one of the most traumatic experiences of your life, especially if you are seriously injured. Many people die each year in motorcycle accidents in the United States. If you are in any type of motorcycle accident, make sure you get a police report, especially if you are injured. Many police agencies in California will not respond to what they consider to be minor motor vehicle accidents. If you are in an accident and you are injured, make sure you inform the police of this fact, and insist that someone come out to investigate the accident and take a police report. This is very important for your case. If you are able too, try to get the names and addresses of any and all witnesses. Do not make any statements at the scene of the accident to anybody but the police. If you are truly injured, call the paramedics or request that someone else call the paramedics for you. It's better to error on the side of caution, than to find out later that you are seriously injured. If the paramedics give you the option of not being transported to a hospital, tell them that you want to be transported to a hospital. By law the paramedics must transport injured persons to a hospital upon request. Again, it is better to error on the side of caution. We have seen all types of motorcycle accident victims, and many types of motorcycle accident injuries could result in internal bleeding or hidden damage that you might be aware of at the time of the accident. After an accident, the chemical adrenaline is produced by the body which increases your heart rate. During this process the pain you are experiencing might not seem to severe. We cannot tell you how many of our client's have been involved in motorcycle accidents and went home thinking that the pain they were feeling would go away, only to end up not being able to move a few hours later.

http://www.bikerlawyer.net/motorcycle-accident-center.htm The present Statute of Limitations for filing a lawsuit for personal injuries related to your motorcycle accident in the State of California is two (2) years from the date of the accident. If you do not file a lawsuit within two (2) years, you lose your right to sue! If any of the parties to the accident is a governmental entity such as county vans and vehicles, a claim must be filed with the entity within 6 months from the date of the accident. If the entity rejects the claim, they must then be sued within one (1) year from the date of the accident. The only time that you should ever wait two years to file a lawsuit in a motorcycle accident, is if you are presently treating with a medical provider for injuries sustained in the accident. In such cases you damages are not fully known (ripe). By Norman Gregory Fernandez, Esq. Copyright 2006
http://www.motorcycle-lawyer.info/motorcycle-accident-center.htm I have been a long time rider of motorcycles, and as such have intimate knowledge of the special issues and problems related to Motorcycle Accident cases. I understand from a "riders" point of view how motorcycle accidents normally happen and the catastrophic injuries that can result from motorcycle accidents. Most motorcycle accidents occur for two reasons; cagers (people driving in cars, also known as cagers to the riders of motorcycles.) either fail to see the motorcyclist before the accident, or demonstrate a reckless indifference towards the right of a motorcyclist to share the same road as their car for whatever reason. Most motorcycle accidents occur at intersections on city streets. It's usually the same old scenario, a car or other vehicle makes a left hand turn in front of the motorcyclist who has the right of way, causing the motorcyclist to either: (1)"lay it down" if he or she has time; (2) Violently swerve to avoid the impending collusion, usually resulting in the motorcycle striking another object; and/or (3)The motorcycle slams into the vehicle throwing the ride into the air. There are many other motorcycle accident scenarios which will not be discussed here, but with which we (and you as well) are intimately familiar. The Cager usually uses the same old excuse; I did not see it. In some instances it has been reported to us that Cagers seemed to have purposefully swerved into or ran a motorcycle off the road for whatever reason. In the instance of this type of conduct, we would consider the case to be an intentional act and seek punitive damages from the cager. In California, lane splitting is legal. Many accidents occur when cagers change lanes right into a motorcyclist, while the motorcycle is splitting lanes. Sometimes cagers will actually swerve over to cut off the motorcyclist who is splitting lanes just because they are angry that they have to wait in traffic or for whatever other reason. Pursuant to California Law, Motorcyclist have the same rights to use public roads, as other motor vehicles. The excuses that we have heard used as defenses to cagers hitting or cutting off motorcyclist just do not cut it. "I did not see him," is no excuse. Each motorist on the road has a duty of due care to watch out for their fellow motorist. When you are selecting a lawyer for your Motorcycle Accident Case, ask him one simple question; Do You Ride? It is very important to select a lawyer that actually knows from a riders point of view how motorcycle accidents happen. I do not ever suggest retaining a lawyer for your motorcycle accident case just because you see a fancy ad in a magazine. That does not mean squat. What matters is retaining a lawyer who rides and who has the knowledge to get you through your case.
