MOTORCYCLE Accident Lawyer New York
While riding a motorcycle has risks greater than driving a car, motorcyclists are absolutely entitled to enjoy use of safe roadways just as much as any other motor vehicle driver. A motorcyclist is entitled to a roadway that is properly paved and does not contain trenches or inclines that make it unsafe to ride upon. Drivers of cars are required to see what there is to be seen which includes a motorcyclist riding on a highway. A passenger on a motorcycle also has rights and may have a cause of action if a driver was negligent in causing an accident.
Strict time limitations exist to commence a suit for a motorcycle accident. In New York State, the time to commence a suit involving a motorcycle accident may depend upon who is injured, who the potential defendant is, as well as the enactment of new laws and judicial decisions interpreting the law. Computing the time limitations is not a simple matter and a person should promptly consult an experienced NY accident attorney after seeking medical treatment.
