Motorcycle Accidents in Alabama
Motorcycle crashes are a significant concern on Alabama roadways, as riders are more vulnerable to serious injuries in collisions. According to the Alabama
Department of Transportation, motorcycle accidents account for a notable percentage of the state's traffic fatalities and severe injuries each year.
Understanding the risks motorcyclists face can help all drivers be more aware and cautious on the road. Some common causes of motorcycle accidents include:
Driver Inattention – Many motorcycle crashes occur because other drivers fail to see motorcyclists in their blind spots or misjudge their speed. Checking mirrors and signaling properly can help prevent these incidents.
Failure to Yield – Intersections and highway merges are high-risk areas for motorcycles. Drivers who fail to yield when required can cause devastating crashes.
Speeding & Reckless Driving – Excessive speed increases the risk of losing control or being unable to stop in time to avoid a collision. Motorcyclists and drivers alike should obey posted speed limits.
Poor Road Conditions – Uneven pavement, potholes, and road debris pose greater hazards to motorcycles than other vehicles. Riders should remain alert to changing road conditions.
Impaired Driving – Alcohol and drugs impair judgment, reaction time, and coordination, making accidents far more likely. All drivers should avoid operating a vehicle under the influence.
