Types Injuries Resulting from a Los Angeles Motorcycle Accident
People who ride motorcycles are much more vulnerable to sustaining a catastrophic or fatal injury in the event of an accident than passengers in a car, truck, or SUV. Unlike other vehicles, motorcycles lack the safety features that provide enhanced protection in an accident, such as windshields, airbags, seat belts, and a metal frame. When a motorcycle is involved in a collision, the motorcycle rider’s body takes the full brunt of the accident.
The human body is not designed to handle the impact of a motorcycle accident. Being thrown onto hard pavement or being struck by a vehicle weighing several hundred tons that is moving at excessive speeds is not something the body can easily withstand. In the event of an accident, motorcycle riders are likely to sustain any number of debilitating, crippling, and painful injuries, such as:
- Brain injuries
- Neck injuries
- Back injuries
- Burn injuries
- Head trauma
- Concussion
- Coma
- Broken bones
- Paralysis
- Amputation
- Permanent disability
- Internal bleeding
- Internal bruising
- Organ damage
- Crushed organs
- Crushed limbs
- Nerve damage
- Loss of sensations
- Permanent scarring
- Disfigurement
- Road Rash
