Ocean County New Jersey Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle accident victims often feel isolated after an Ocean County, New Jersey motorcycle crash. The big insurance companies believe it is easy to blame the motorcyclist for the accident. Other reckless riders can give all riders a bad reputation. Call me, Joseph Monaco, Ocean County Motorcycle Accident Lawyer, if you or a loved one are the victim of another motorist’s reckless or careless driving. As a 2nd Generation Trial Lawyer I know how to take on the big insurance companies who want nothing more then to keep their huge profits by denying motorcycle accident victims just monetary compensation.
Motorcycle drivers and passengers are 26 times more likely to die in an accident than an occupant of an auto. Besides a helmet, there are no safety devices like air bags or seat belts protecting motorcyclists. Seat belts save lives by preventing vehicle occupants from being ejected from the vehicle. A motorcycle rider has nothing preventing him from being thrown through the air. This is a leading cause of the higher fatality rate for motorcycle riders. Other injuries from motorcycle crashes include:
- Traumatic brain injury
- Whiplash
- Lacerations including road rash
- Broken Bones
- Internal Injuries
- Post traumatic stress disorder
- Herniated discs and nerve damage
