Common Causes of Ogden Motorcycle Accidents
Many motorcycle accidents are due to the negligent actions of motorists – not motorcyclists. Many motorcycle accidents happen because of motorists’ negligent actions, such as:
- Speeding
- Failing to yield the right-of-way
- Following too closely
- Running red lights
- Running stop signs
- Distracted driving
- Unsafe passing
- Failing to check blind spots
- Drunk driving
Other motorcycle accidents are caused because of dangerous conditions on the roadway. Because motorcycles are more vulnerable to road imperfections, serious accidents can occur due to uneven pavement, sharp turns, potholes, road debris, and other roadway hazards.
Our experienced Ogden motorcycle accident lawyers can thoroughly investigate your accident to determine how it happened and who is ultimately responsible for it.
What Is the Time Limit to File a Motorcycle Accident Lawsuit?
Most personal injury lawsuits in Utah must be filed within four years of the accident date. However, claims against a governmental agency – such as those involving road departments that failed to properly maintain the roadway – must be filed within one year of the accident. If you miss the deadline that applies to your case without filing your legal action,
