Motorcycle Accidents

The ever-increasing amount of traffic on Florida roads and the numerous distractions in each individual’s automobile contribute to many motorcycle accidents. Despite the best efforts of experienced riders, motorcycle accidents and the accompanying injuries are often caused by drivers failing to locate the motorcycle and providing the proper distance for maneuvering, failing to yield the right of way to motorcyclists, or other failures of obedience to traffic laws. In 2006, there were 521 motorcycle fatalities in Florida—44 deaths in Broward County, 61 deaths in Miami-Dade County, and 28 deaths in Palm Beach County.
