  • Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents in Ottawa

    Even if you wear the right equipment and obey the rules of the road, riding a motorcycle can be dangerous. Because a motorcycle does not offer the same protections as a car, even a minor collision can leave long-lasting or permanent injuries.

    Many factors can go into an accident. Speed, inattention and road conditions can turn an enjoyable ride into a traumatizing experience in a split second.

    Every motorcycle rider is aware of the hazards of riding in traffic. Cars have blind spots and motorcycles are smaller, which can make lane changes dangerous. Motorists making left-hand turns at an intersection also present a hazard for riders. Any collision can be catastrophic, especially if a motorcycle is struck from behind or clipped at the side.

    Of course, motorcyclists must also contend with poor road conditions. A pothole, slippery surfaces, loose gravel or debris on the road can cause a crash.

  • Compensation After Motorcycle Injury in Ottawa

    If you have been hurt in a motorcycle accident you will likely need compensation to help in your recovery. Every motorist and motorcycle rider in Ontario is required to carry insurance. This can help pay medical bills, lost wages and property damage under what is known as Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule (SABS). Also referred to as no-fault insurance, SABS is available regardless of who caused the accident.

    SABS does not provide compensation for everything. You will have to file a tort claim against the person at fault for your accident for non-economic losses such as pain and suffering.

    If you have been injured in an accident, do not settle for the insurance company’s first offer. Our lawyers have almost 50 years of experience representing those whose lives have been shattered by catastrophic injuries or their families if death resulted from a traffic accident. We are ready to serve you.
