Motorcycle accidents involve some of the worst injuries on the roads, from broken bones to internal injuries. New York state law requires motorcycle riders to wear helmets, which reduces the risk of death by 37 percent, as well as reducing the severity of head injuries.
But even with the protection of helmets and other safety gear, riders face a risk of injuries on the open roads. Head injuries can cause a severe hardship or even be a precursor to a wrongful death lawsuit. In many head injury cases, medical bills and hospital care are only a part of a long list of expenses related to the injury. For some injury victims, the cost of lost time from work may outweigh medical costs. A permanent disability from a head injury might mean reduced income for the rest of the victim's life, according to a report by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
