The Road Belongs to You Too
"I never even saw him!"
It's no excuse, and yet such a common thing to hear. Inattentive driving is common enough, but for motorcyclists it’s a constant threat. Drivers who barely glance as they quickly change lanes or turn right on red without making sure the lane is clear are all too common. But, those poor decisions, the recklessness which injures motorcyclists every day, are no defense against being responsible for negligence.
Motorcycles have as much right to operate on Florida highways as anyone else.
Defending Your Rights
You want a lawyer defending your motorcycle personal injury or wrongful death case who understands the law, understands how to preserve evidence and understands how to evaluate damages. You want a lawyer who can convince juries and judges:
- Motorcycles have as much right to the road as automobiles.
- Drivers are responsible for knowing who is in a lane before crossing into it.
- Motorcyclists aren't irresponsible because of their choice of vehicle.
- People who drive motorcycles are entitled to the same protections as everyone else.
- Not knowing a cyclist was there isn't an excuse.
Most people understand the basic protections the law offers motorcyclists, but in practice, some people think, even subconsciously, that someone injured in a motorcycle accident was just asking for it. Overcoming the preconceived myths and notions of potential juries that hold your future in their hands is a skill that requires experience and tenacity.
At McFann & Beavers, P.A., we provide that kind of experienced and convincing defense.
