The most common cause of death from a motorcycle accident is a head injury.
Steps to Take After a Motorcycle Accident
After an accident that involves a motorcycle, there are helpful steps to take to preserve a legal injury claim. They include the following:
- Report the accident to your insurance company, but do not give a statement. If they ask for one, say “no.”

- If injured in an accident involving another driver, collect their driver’s license and car insurance information.
