In 2024, 189 motorcyclists died from collisions across New York, and 4,681 riders were injured. Motorcyclists are more likely to die in a collision than people in passenger cars and trucks. When someone is struck while riding a motorcycle, it is often due to some type of driver error.
Speeding is one potential cause of motorcycle collisions, and 29% of all roadway deaths in 2024 were tied to a speeding motorist. Distracted driving is another common type of driver negligence that led to 315,167 injuries in 2024.
In the aftermath of a collision with another vehicle, motorcyclists can suffer serious and potentially life-altering injuries that require treatment at North Shore University Hospital, the Comprehensive Stroke Center at NYU Langone Hospital, or another nearby hospital.
New York is a no-fault state for automobile and motorcycle accidents. This means that individual drivers and motorcycle riders typically turn to their own no-fault insurance policies for compensation following a wreck.
In certain circumstances, a serious collision could mean that you qualify for a civil claim that pursues additional compensation from the at-fault driver. Whether you are dealing with your own insurer or seeking a fair settlement through the claims process, having legal representation can protect your rights and interests throughout the process.
Following a motorcycle wreck, you have the right to notify your no-fault insurance carrier about the accident. You also have the right to seek necessary medical attention and to secure legal representation from an experienced injury lawyer. If you suffered a serious injury that cannot be fully covered by your insurance policy, you can rely on the civil courts to provide a pathway to fair compensation through a settlement or court verdict.
After a motorcycle crash, adrenaline and the shock of the crash could mask symptoms of certain injuries. Call 911 to report the injury so you receive prompt treatment from paramedics. Alerting the police also helps them secure the crash scene and begin investigating the cause of the collision. Allow paramedics to examine you for injuries, and answer any questions by the police as honestly and objectively as possible.
If you do not need urgent medical treatment at North Shore University Hospital or another healthcare facility, schedule a full examination as soon as possible. This can help document the harm you suffered, which can support a future injury claim. You can request a copy of the police report tied to the accident and hire an attorney to manage your claim. Legal support can help you better understand your options for pursuing full compensation for the harm you endured.
If you do not hire an experienced lawyer, you could fail to reclaim what you lost from a motorcycle wreck in Long Island. Your own no-fault insurance company could undervalue your settlement, and you could fail to understand whether your case qualifies for a civil court claim. If you try to pursue compensation through the courts without the right support, missed deadlines, improper filings, and other challenges could lead to preventable setbacks.
A motorcycle injury in Long Island can leave you feeling overwhelmed by challenges. When you gain legal support and hire a motorcycle accident lawyer, you position yourself for a favorable outcome to your accident claim. A motorcycle accident case can lead to meaningful compensation, but only when you work with a lawyer who understands the state’s motorcycle accident laws and how they could shape the outcome of your claim.
Legal support from a Long Island motorcycle accident attorney can make sure that filing deadlines are met and that the at-fault party is held accountable for the harm they cause. Lawyers are skilled at both negotiating and litigating. Their many years of experience can help them anticipate challenges, so you receive fair and timely compensation for what you suffered due to a motorcycle collision.
