According to Ohio State Highway Patrol statistics, in 2019 alone, 160 motorcycle drivers died in crashes on Ohio roadways. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) also reports that a motorcyclist is 35 times more likely to die in a traffic accident than someone driving a passenger vehicle. And even when motorcycle accidents don’t result in fatalities, they are far more likely to result in serious injuries that are difficult and costly to recover from.
An Ohio personal injury law firm, Kisling, Nestico & Redick (KNR), has seen firsthand the life-altering effects that motorcycle accidents can have on victims. Most of KNR’s staff and legal team worked in the insurance industry prior to joining the firm, so they know that insurance companies will do everything they can to avoid paying victims what they deserve. We talked with KNR about what riders should know about motorcycle personal injury claims and how they can protect themselves by being safer on the road.
