Motorcycle riders are no longer limited to rough, lawless gang members. In the movies we used to see them running cars off the road and terrifying little children in neighborhoods. Another thing that has changed is the law requiring them to wear helmets. Still easy to be hurt in any accident, one of these men or women can call on a Paulding County Auto Accident Attorney for compensation if injured by a driver at fault in case of a crash.

The rider in a car has protection all around his body. That is not true of the motorcyclist. If he goes down there is only air between him and the road. Also, there are no seat belts on a bike. He can be thrown off and collide with a tree or other stationary object.

In Milwaukee Wisconsin, where the Haley Davidson manufacturing plant, and the museum of the same name are located, there is a rally every other year. The cyclists roar into town with the freeway lined with local citizens watching them. All motel rooms in the area are filled. All the restaurants and bars are crowded every night.

Sadly, every rally sees the occurrence of at least one fatal crash in or near the city. Drinking is sometimes the reason for these. Another reason is that some drivers of cars resent them being there, using parking spaces and generally taking over the roads.

Cyclists in Paulding County can have accidents too. They may slip on gravel if driving on the side of a road. A crash is more likely in winter weather or if moving at excessive speed.

It is the best idea to hire an attorney after any such accident. If the cyclist is injured and it is the other drivers fault, he is entitled to collect damages. As the attorney can explain, medical bills are recoverable as well as replacement of the motorcycle. It is also possible to collect a sum of money to compensate for pain and suffering in a court of law.
