Motorcycle riding is a favorite pastime for many Americans. A sunny afternoon drive, however, can take a deadly turn on the roadway resulting in tragic accidents and serious personal injuries. Motorcycle accidents can be caused by a host of varied circumstances. Some may involve the motorcyclist's negligent conduct or careless driving; however, many others are caused by the fault of another driver on the road. The most common cause of motorcycle accidents is the failure of motorists to detect and recognize motorcycles in traffic. Given a motorcycle's small size, its visibility may be limited by glare or obstructed by other cars on the roadway. It comes as no surprise then that intersections are among the most common places for collisions to occur when drivers do not see the motorcyclist and fail to yield the right-of-way.
