CT Motorcycle Accident Attorney

There are many reasons why you should, as a motorcycle rider, take specific precautions to protect your safety while riding your bike throughout the state.  Taking precautions can not only keep you from getting into a Connecticut motorcycle accident but they can also protect other drivers on the road from damage or injury.  It is not only the safe thing to do, it is the right thing to do to keep you and your community safe.

There is a lot to be said about weather conditions and how they impact driving conditions.  This is especially true when it comes to weather and how it does or does not impact the possibility for a Connecticut motorcycle accident.

It was ten years ago in the early aughts that the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) called for a federal mandate that all street legal motorcycles come equipped with Anti-Lock Braking Systems (ABS.)  At the time the evidence was quite compelling that motorcycles equipped with this type of safety feature were far less likely to be involved in a dangerous accident.  Ten years later the numbers continue to back up this assertion by the IIHS.

The weather is warming up and it’s getting close to the time when you will be gearing up to put your motorcycle back out on the road.  Spring is an absolutely beautiful time to hit the road on your motorcycle, but we want to make sure you stay safe.
