Why Motorcycle Accidents Cause More Severe Injuries
Motorcycle riders are far more exposed than drivers in enclosed vehicles.
- Lack of protection from airbags or steel frames
- Greater risk of being thrown from the bike
- Direct impact with the roadway or other vehicles
- Limited visibility to other drivers
Even when riders wear protective gear, the lack of physical protection makes serious injuries more likely.
Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents in Salt Lake City
- Drivers failing to see motorcycles due to visibility issues
- Left-turn collisions at intersections
- Unsafe lane changes
- Distracted or impaired driving
- Road hazards such as debris or uneven pavement
Many motorcycle crashes occur because drivers misjudge a rider’s speed or overlook them entirely.

Insurance Issues in Motorcycle Accident Claims
Motorcyclists often face biased insurance adjusters who assume riders are reckless simply for choosing to ride.
Utah follows a comparative fault system, meaning insurers may try to shift blame onto riders to reduce payouts.
Our attorneys challenge unfair fault assessments and push back against low settlement offers that fail to reflect the severity of motorcycle injuries.
Compensation Available After a Motorcycle Accident
- Medical expenses and future treatment
- Lost income and reduced earning capacity
- Property damage
- Pain and suffering
- Permanent disability damages
Severe motorcycle crashes may result in catastrophic injury cases or, in fatal situations, wrongful death claims.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why are motorcycle accidents more dangerous than car accidents?
Motorcycle riders lack the physical protection of passenger vehicles, making them more vulnerable to serious injuries even in low-speed crashes.
Do helmet laws affect motorcycle accident claims in Utah?
Helmet use may be considered by insurance companies, but it does not prevent an injured rider from pursuing compensation when another driver is at fault.
Are motorcyclists often blamed unfairly after accidents?
Yes. Insurance adjusters frequently assume riders are reckless, which can lead to unfair fault assessments and reduced settlement offers.
How much is a motorcycle accident case worth?
Case value depends on injury severity, long-term medical needs, lost income, and the impact on quality of life.
