North Carolina Motorcycle Accidents 
Motorcyclists in North Carolina are at great risk of being seriously hurt or killed when they are involved in accidents on our roadways. According to statistics from the North Carolina Department of Transportation, there were a total of 3,566 North Carolina motorcycle accidents in 2018. Of this number, 2,806 injuries were reported and 176 motorcyclists tragically lost their lives. Motorcycles offer little protection from the force and the impact of a traffic collision and motorcyclists often take the worst of the impact. Compared with traditional vehicles, motorcyclists are far more likely to suffer injuries in a crash.
The causes of motorcycle accidents in Fayetteville vary, but there are several common reasons that these crashes occur. This includes negligence by other drivers, such as failing to see the motorcycle or failing to properly yield. Even a single instance of negligence can cause a crash that results in catastrophic injuries. If you find yourself in this unfortunate situation, it is important to consult a skilled Fayetteville motorcycle accident attorney in order to get information regarding your rights as soon as possible.
