Riverside Motorcycle Accident Statistics

Although we are motorcycle accident lawyers, we are, first and foremost, motorcycle riders.  If you or a loved one are injured in a motorcycle accident in  Riverside (or anywhere else) we are here to help you.  But we mean it when we say that we hope you never need us.  To keep our clients and readers informed and to promote motorcycle safety awareness, we publish information on motorcycle laws,  motorcycle safety and motorcycle accident statistics.  

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), motorcycle accident fatalities in Southern California, including Riverside and the Inland Empire, have increased in recent years.  The NHTSA claims that this increase is due more motorcycles on the road, bigger engines, older riders, unlicensed riders, and riding while intoxicated, among other things.  As motorcycle accident lawyers and motorcyclists who travel highways and roads in Southern California nearly every day, we think the NHTSA ignored the biggest reason for motorcycle accidents: careless drivers.  In many cases, the police officer investigating the accident simply assumes that the motorcyclist was at fault, without any basis, because of anti-motorcycle bias. 

Riverside and the Inland Empire are home to a great many bikers, and we've had the pleasure of meeting (and in many cases, representing) hundreds of riders from these areas.  We are constantly updating this site to provide our Riverside and Inland Empire readers and clients with the most up-to-date information on all motorcycle-related things in Riverside County.  If you have any questions or would like to contribute information for our site, please contact us.

As always, if you or a loved one have had an accident in Riverside or the Inland Empire and would like to speak to one of our motorcycle accident lawyers, please email or call our toll-free hotline.
