Oklahoma Fatal Motorcycle Crashes

It's far too easy for motorcyclists to be hurt on the road. Riders have been known to get fatal injuries or injuries that change their lives. Motorcycles are over-represented in national roadway fatalities, and these vehicles leave their riders greatly exposed. Studies show that almost 80 percent of motorcycle crashes end in death or injury and that people riding motorcycles are almost 27 times more likely to die and four times more likely to be hurt in an accident than someone in a passenger car. It is important to make a strong wrongful death claim if someone close to you dies in a motorcycle accident.
