Toronto Motorcycle Accident Lawyers


Motorcycle riders are often depicted in popular media as reckless, born-to-be-wild risk-takers. In reality, however, motorcycle riders are usually hyper-vigilant about personal safety. Riding a powerful, dangerous machine like a motorcycle requires an abundance of caution. Experienced motorcycle riders need to remain alert on the roads at all times in order to protect themselves against the bad habits and unlawful conduct of negligent drivers.

If a motorcycle rider encounters a negligent rider on the road, the results can be fatal. According to a report released by the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP), there has been a dramatic year-over-year increase in fatal collisions involving motorcycle riders. Because of a driver’s failure to operate their vehicle in a cautious and considerate manner, families can lose their loved ones in tragic, senseless accidents.

Oftentimes, if a motorcycle rider survives a collision caused by a negligent driver, they sustain severe, permanent, and/or catastrophic injuries. Injured motorcyclists can lose their mobility, their independence, their ability to perform the duties of their jobs, and the overall quality of life to which they had grown accustomed, and all because another road-user failed to fulfill their duty of care.

In accordance with the province’s Highway Traffic Act, all motor vehicle operators owe a duty of care to other road-users, including motorcycle riders. If someone violates the rules of the road and an injury-causing collision ensues, the at-fault party could be liable for damages incurred by the people whose lives were negatively impacted by their negligent actions or inactions.

That means that, if a negligent driver strikes and injures a motorcycle rider, they could be responsible for providing the injured accident survivor with compensation for injury-related losses they have incurred. Furthermore, if a motorcycle rider is killed in a collision caused by a negligent driver, the immediate family of the deceased accident victim may be eligible to pursue a wrongful death claim to recover financial losses they have sustained as a result of their relative’s untimely passing.

According to Ontario’s Compulsory Automobile Insurance Act, it is mandatory for anyone who owns, leases, or operates a motor vehicle to have insurance that meets the province’s minimum coverage requirements. That being the case, all motorcycle riders should have insurance policies that provide access to no-fault accident benefits. In the event of an injury-causing collision, these benefits can provide much-needed financial relief and help motorcycle accident survivors afford the costs of necessary injury-related expenses.

However, depending on the severity of the injuries sustained and their impact on the collision survivor’s life and livelihood, the accident benefits to which they might be entitled do not always provide sufficient coverage. That is why, if you were injured by a negligent driver, it could be beneficial to consult with our Toronto motorcycle accident lawyers today.
