By mid-May, temperatures in Worcester tend to be growing warmer every day. While the weather may still be variable this time of year, some local residents are likely eager to take their motorcycles, scooters or mopeds out on the road. Unfortunately, just as motorcycles are on the road this time of year, negligent drivers are a threat year-round. If one has been in a motorcycle accident, there are legal options for recovering against the negligent party.
At , LLP the skilled personal injury attorneys are ready to hold negligent parties accountable. There are many reasons why a negligent party might cause a motorcycle wreck: failure to yield, being a distracted driver and texting while driving or not watching for motorcycles, bikes or pedestrians.
