Local statistics indicate an unsettling trend: motorcyclists are significantly overrepresented in traffic fatalities and serious injuries across Illinois. The state’s Department of Transportation reports that while motorcycles account for a mere fraction of total vehicle registrations, the fatalities involving motorcyclists are alarmingly disproportionate.
The Chicago area alone accounts for roughly 27% of all motorcycle fatalities statewide.
Liability in motorcycle crashes is often complicated by Illinois’ comparative fault system. This system prorates liability, potentially diminishing compensation if you’re found partially at fault.Â
Furthermore, unique to Chicago are certain conditions and legal considerations, such as lane-splitting laws and helmet regulations, which further complicate these scenarios. Moreover, seasonal weather changes in the city, notorious for lake-effect snow and sudden storms, often contribute to accidents, raising questions about road maintenance and city liabilities.
Establishing the full context of the accident is crucial, requiring thorough investigation and evidence collection with the help of a skilled motorcycle accident attorney.Â
In Illinois, the clock starts ticking the moment the accident occurs, granting victims a two-year window to initiate legal action. This period can seem extensive, but waiting can be perilous. Evidence deteriorates, memories fade, and the intricacies of the incident become harder to piece together, underscoring the necessity for prompt, decisive action.
Neighborhoods such as Austin, Greater Garfield Park, and North Lawndale are notorious for being high crash corridors that pose an amplified risk for riders, where moments of negligence by others translate to a lifetime of consequences for the unsuspecting motorcyclist. Additionally, motorcycle crashes on highways and freeways make up a high percentage of motor vehicle accident fatalities.Â
In numerous instances, motorcyclists fall victim to other drivers’ failure to yield the right of way, a clear infringement that places innocent lives in jeopardy. Speeding and intoxicated driving also compromise reaction times, escalating the severity of crashes exponentially. Furthermore, accidents resulting from reckless lane changes embody the perilous outcomes of impulsive driving decisions.
Some common types of motorcycle accidents in Chicago include:Â
In Chicago, the law provides for comprehensive compensation to motorcycle accident victims aimed at easing the burdens imposed by such traumatic events. The compensation framework is designed to be inclusive, addressing a range of losses that extend beyond the immediate medical expenses. It encompasses aspects that restore, to the extent possible, the quality of life and financial stability that the affected individuals enjoyed prior to the accident.
However, obtaining the compensation you deserve isn’t always straightforward. The other party’s insurance company might attempt to minimize their payout, capitalizing on legal loopholes and the victim’s unfamiliarity with the process. This is where having a steadfast legal team becomes pivotal.
Here are some types of compensation that our lawyers help injured motorcyclists obtain:Â
