Distracted and aggressive drivers pose threats to all other drivers on the road, but especially to motorcyclists due to their exposure and vulnerability. If you’ve been injured in a motorcycle accident due to another driver’s distraction, “road rage,” or other negligence, speak with an experienced personal injury attorney who specializes in motorcycle accidents as soon as possible.

There are many forms of aggressive driving, and they include:

–      Abrupt lane-changes
–      Failure to use a turn signal
–      Tailgating
–      Excessive horn-honking or light-flashing
–      Speeding
–      Verbal insults or threats to other drivers
–      Following a driver
–      Displaying a weapon to threaten a driver

These behaviors are legally considered negligent and even criminal in some cases. To earn compensation for a motorcycle accident caused by another driver, you must prove that the driver violated his/her duty of care by driving in a careless, reckless, or aggressive manner which directly resulted in the accident and your injuries.

You may be eligible for multiple forms of compensation, such as:

–      Lost wages
–      Lost earning capacity
–      Pain and suffering
–      Mental anguish/emotional distress
–      Medical bills/expenses
