Westminster Motorcycle and Bicycle Accident

Southern California is one of the best places in the United States to ride a motorcycle or bike. The wide-open roads of the country and the sunny California weather are a perfect combination to create a sense of freedom and carefree living that bikers live for. Unfortunately, a lot of car drivers appear to be taking on this care-free sense of driving as well.

There are nearly 4,000 motorcycle accidents that occur in Los Angeles Metropolitan area each year. In fact, nearly 12,000 bikers are injured all over California each year due to accidents that are caused by anything from bad roads to driver negligence. If you happen to be in one of these accidents, your world would be quickly turned upside down.

The Hidden Costs of Accidents

When you get into an accident, you may think that you will just have a few cuts and scrapes. After all, you live in the city and you are most likely to get into an accident going at low speed. However, the modern-day motorcycle does not really offer much in the ways of protection if you are in a crash.

Many of the crashes that cyclists experience are moderate to severe and almost all of them require some form of hospitalization. This means that you will end up having to pay expensive doctor’s bills and emergency room bills. If you are injured severely enough, you may have to undergo surgery and subsequent rehabilitation or physical therapy. All of these things cost money, and they do not come cheap.

The costs do not stop after you walk through the exit of the hospital, however. You might be unable to work for a few days to a few months, meaning you are losing out on the wages that you need to keep up with your hospital bills (not to mention all of the bills that you already have to pay on a monthly basis). You may even be permanently disabled and unable to work at all. This will create undue pressure and stress on your family to pull yourselves through this horrible situation.

What makes matters even worse is that it seems like you are being punished for an accident that was caused by someone else’s negligence. If this happens, it is time to consider hiring a personal injury lawyer.
