    Preventing motorcycle accidents begins by following the basics

    The best way to deal with motorcycle accidents is to prevent them from occurring in the first place. With that in mind, here’s a quick reminder about the basics of defensive riding:

    • Plan your route ahead of time: By doing so, you’ll already have a feel for the challenges and hazards you may encounter along the way. The worst thing that can happen to a motorcyclist is to be caught by surprise.
    • Scan the environment as you ride: A common mistake made by novice riders is to focus all their attention on the road ahead. Remember to glance at your mirrors and scan the road around you from time to time. That way, it’s easier to see potential problems in plenty of time.
    • Use hand signals as well as turn signals before executing a turn: Most motorists are happy to give you a little extra room while you’re on your bike. But it’s up to you to signal your intentions to them clearly.
    • Practice good riding etiquette: Speeding, weaving in and out of lanes, or ignoring road signs are not only disrespectful, they greatly increase your chances of suffering a serious accident.
    • Remember that leather and denim fabrics are your friends: Wearing shorts, flip-flops, or T-shirts is fine for a trip to the beach. But they’re the worst possible clothing choices for spending the day on your bike.
    • Constantly improve your riding skills: Mastering the art of riding a motorcycle is a lifelong process. There’s always more to learn. Take seminars, watch videos, and read books on this important topic from time to time. The more you know, the safer you are.

    While defensive riding has its value, by itself it can never prevent every motorcycle accident. If you have suffered losses due to circumstances outside your control, then talking to a motorcycle accident attorney can help you to get on the road to recovery. Here’s how:

    • By giving you the facts you need to make an informed decision: To know which way you should go, you must first know where you’re at. Gloucester Point motorcycle accident lawyers can help you to understand your legal options, saving you from both missed opportunities and mistaken perceptions.
    • By acting as your advocate in negotiations with the other side: By the “other side” we mean the person or persons who caused your accident, as well as any insurance companies that may be involved. Trying to deal with these entities on your own may make you vulnerable to harassment or high-pressure tactics. It can even rob you of the compensation you deserve.
    • By putting you in touch with other caring professionals: Often, a motorcycle accident lawyer can connect you with skilled doctors, counselors, and physical therapists who can help you to put your life back together after a serious injury.
