In Guelph, motorcycle accidents can have tragic consequences. They can lead to catastrophic injuries, emotional trauma, and substantial financial losses. They can also cause families to lose a loved one.

If you’re a motorcyclist who was injured in a collision caused by another driver’s negligence, a Guelph motorcycle accident lawyer may be able to help you pursue damages for costs you incurred as a result.

How a Motorcycle Accident Lawyer May Be Able to Help

Injuries resulting from motorcycle accidents can have devastating consequences on a victim’s life, and the lives of their family members. During these difficult periods of recovery and adjustment, a Guelph motorcycle accident lawyer may be able to help you in your pursuit of accountability and financial restitution, through the following actions:

  • Analyzing evidence to establish fault for the collision
  • Filing time-sensitive paperwork in accordance with their deadlines
  • Negotiating financial settlements
  • Pursuing your case in court, if necessary

Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

In 2019, Ontario’s Ministry of Transportation (MTO) reported more than 1,200 motorcycle collisions resulting in injury. Some of the leading causes of accidents involving motorcycles include:

  • Distracted driving, including texting while driving
  • Aggressive driving, such as speeding
  • Impaired driving

In Canada, on average, 175 people are injured by drunk drivers every day, per Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD Canada). If a driver operates their vehicle under the influence of drugs or alcohol, they put themselves at even greater risk of causing a serious collision with a motorcyclist.

These examples of recklessness on the road all constitute negligence. Legally, all motor vehicle operators have a responsibility to drive attentively and cautiously and to obey the rules of the road at all times. A negligent driver who causes a collision with a motorcyclist resulting in injuries may be held liable for damages incurred as a result of the accident.

Recovering Damages from a Motorcycle Accident

If another party’s negligence on the road caused you to sustain injuries in a motorcycle accident, a Guelph motorcycle accident lawyer may be able to help you recover damage for costs incurred as a result of the accident. These damages might include:

  • Medical expenses
  • Rehabilitation costs
  • Lost wages
  • Reduced earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering

In order to help you pursue compensation, a Guelph motorcycle accident lawyer may compile and analyze various forms of evidence, such as eyewitness testimonies, medical examinations, police reports, and more. Using this evidence, a lawyer may be able to help determine the total costs of damages that you incurred as a result of your injuries.
