What Are Motorcycle Collisions with Fixed Objects?
When a motorcycle collision occurs with a fixed object it may be possible to hold the parties responsible for the presence of the stationary object in or near the roadway accountable for your accident and subsequent injuries. Examples of fixed objects may include: - Buildings - Trees - Guardrails - Telephone poles - Walls - Barriers - Fences - Parked cars - Cones - Construction signs This is another situation where the safety of being behind the wheel of a large car is gone, and any accident that occurs is more likely to be a fatal one due to the speed and impact of being thrown from a motorcycle after a collision. Only 18% of car deaths are attributed to a collision with a fixed object, but that number jumps to 25% for those riding a motorcycle.
