After you have been involved in an accident, there are a few steps you should take, if possible. Report the accident to law enforcement and once they arrive on the scene to take a report, ask for a copy.

Ask for witness contact information and if there are any witnesses remaining, get their statements. Even if you do not think you are injured, you should seek medical attention.

Often victims of accidents are in shock and do not realize they have serious injuries. If you can, take photos of your injuries and the accident scene.

It is also important that you speak with an experienced Honolulu motorcycle accident lawyer as soon as possible after the incident.

What Are The Most Common Causes Of Motorcycle Accidents?

A large number of motorcycle accidents, almost two-thirds of all annual crashes, are caused by larger vehicles violating motorcyclists’ right of way. When this happens, the motorcyclist may swerve or try to avoid the crash.

This often results in the motorcyclist hitting another vehicle or something on the road, making the accident hard to prove, especially if the driver commits a hit and run.

Other common causes of motorcycle accidents include:

• Motorcycle defects

• Distracted drivers

• Drunk drivers

• Defective roadways

• Dangerous weather conditions

• Cell phone use

• Speeding

• Ignoring traffic laws
