Sadly, this accident illustrated several points we hit on at Roswold Law Group on a regular basis. First, police indicated the accident was caused by one of the drivers running a red light. We often talk about distracted driving, which could cause a driver to run a light. Distracted driving is becoming one of the leading causes of auto accidents in today's driving environment. Read up on distracted driving in our article, "What is Distracted Driving" for more information. The second point is the lack of protection a motorcycle offers its rider. In this case, a pickup truck overturned onto the motorcycle. If that rider had been safely protected in a car, his injuries could have been lessened.
