Common Motorcycle Injuries
The fact remains that most motorcyclists are at the highest risk of getting injured especially with catastrophic and fatal injuries in an accident with any truck, car or any other vehicle when discussing vehicles on the streets of California. This is because the vehicle is much smaller and provides the no protection in the event of a collision. In larger vehicles, the driver is encased in a frame of steel which offers some protection. Motorcyclists do not and consequently are more exposed and vulnerable to injuries, especially permanent and debilitating injuries that are very serious.
Examples of potentially serious accidents a motorcycle driver can experience include, but are not limited to the following:
- Paralysis
- Spinal cord injuries
- Amputation of legs and arms
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Permanent scarring and disfigurement
Less serious injuries are also possible and can cause pain and suffering that may take some time to recover. These include road rash, broken bones, face fractures and burns.
