    Motorcycle Accidents in National City: How They Happen

    The majority of two-vehicle motorcycle accidents come about when a vehicle driver fails to observe the motorcyclist. Unfortunately‚ vehicle drivers may not see a motorcyclist traveling in an adjoining lane‚ in an oncoming lane‚ or stopped at a stoplight or stop sign ahead. According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety‚ 42 percent of fatal motorcycle accidents in a recent year were the result of a vehicle turning left while the motorcycle was traveling straight‚ passing‚ or when overtaking the vehicle. It is a sad fact that motorcycle deaths are increasing at a shocking rate‚ doubling over a 7-year period. In National City‚ the problems faced by riders are even more serious‚ due to the risks posed by those who engage in street racing.
