On the web

Channel
“Gary – I’d love to have your advice on this. It was about 2:00 p.m. – early afternoon. The roads were dry. The weather was sunny and there was not a cloud in the sky. It was a great day for me to be riding my Harley. This elderly woman pulls out of a fast food restaurant’s parking lot. She was trying to turn left and pulled out in front of me. I couldn’t swerve to avoid hitting her. I laid down the bike as best I could but still crashed into the rear driver’s side of her car. I broke my right ankle and actually had to have surgery on it because it was really messed up.
Do I need a lawyer? And can you help me???” -Glenn in Norcross.

I am so sorry to hear about your wreck – and to answer your questions – yes and yes!

But let me give our viewers some alarming statistics from government studies about motorcycle accidents:
* In 2010, 4,502 people were killed in the United States in accidents involving motorcycles.

The at fault driver was attempting to turn left out of the fast food restaurant driveway when she pulled out in front of you.
Now what is the main reason these motorcycle accidents happened?

So let’s look at how we can prevent these wrecks from ever happening in two ways:
First – from the perspective of the person riding the motorcycle.
Here are 5Tips I’d like to share:

(2) Follow the speed limit!
And this really does apply to all of us, not just to motorcycle riders.
Speed kills.

In fact, a motorcyclist not wearing a helmet is 40% more likely to die of a head injury than one who wears a helmet.

(4) Keep your headlight on at all times.

Colors that stand out – like yellow, orange, or bright red jackets will help you be seen by others.

Now here are a couple of helpful hints for all of us:
(1) Look Twice, Save A Life!

You should always double check to make sure the road is clear before you pull into a roadway from either a stop sign, a yield sign, or a driveway.

(2) Keep your eyes on the road!

No Texting and no trying to dial the phone.

Through no fault of your own, you have no idea what YOUR rights are, nor do you know the insurance company’s responsibilities.

Insurance adjusters are trained to act like your long lost friend. They will tell you things like “You don’t need a lawyer. We are here to help you.”

You really have to ask yourself – Do you want to take on the insurance company and THEIR lawyers by yourself?
Let me show you just how much of a difference hiring a lawyer can make on your case.
A consumer panel survey of auto accident victims by the Insurance Research Council showed the following:
* Injured victims receive an average of 40% more money just by consulting a lawyer to learn their rights!

* Injured victims receive an average of 3 and ? times more money when they hire an attorney to defend their rights!
3 and ? times more money.
Let’s put that in real dollars.

That money could be used to take care of your future medical needs or to help you catch up on your bills.
Please – you owe it to yourself to call a lawyer to discuss the facts of your specific claim.
