Oklahoma Deadly Motorcycle Accidents

Jenks, OK - Teen Dies in Motorcycle Crash at Creek Tpke & US-75A lot of people in Oklahoma like to ride their motorcycles on the open road. Unfortunately, riders lack the same protection as those traveling in passenger cars. There were 1,231 motorcycle accidents across the Sooner State in 2020. That year, related crashes hurt at least 661 people and killed 62. Motorcyclists are almost 28 times more likely to die in an accident and almost four times more likely to be hurt on the road than someone in a car. For these reasons and more, motorcyclists are over-represented in national roadway fatalities. If someone close to you is unfairly killed in a crash, you can pursue a wrongful death claim with the help of a skilled legal team.
