Road Rash: Michigan Motorcycle Accident Lawyers
Our Michigan motorcycle accident lawyers frequently represent bikers with serious and catastrophic injuries. This includes road rash, an term used to refer to skin and bone injuries caused by abrasion with road surfaces. This injury is also seen frequently in bicycle accidents, skateboarding accidents, and inline skating accidents. The injuries can often be serious and permanent.
Road rash injuries from motorcycle accidents are often the most severe. This is simply because of the speed of the bike at the time of the injury and often because of defects in the road surfaces that cause severe injuries. Many bikers also do not wear protective clothing that would reduce the severity of the injury.
Also, it is important to obtain prompt treatment for these injuries to reduce the risk of infection and permanent damage. Minor injuries can often be treated at home with proper care, but more severe injuries required medical intervention at a hospital or with an experienced physician.
A biker who suffers road rash injuries in a Michigan motorcycle accident can seek compensation from a negligent motorist that caused the accident. Because these injuries often result in permanent scarring and disfigurement, the motorcyclist can claim these injuries as part of a damages claim in his or her Michigan motorcycle accident case.
