Limited visibility motorcycle accidents in Hialeah and Florida often occur at intersections where parked vehicles, shrubbery and trees can obstruct the view of a motorcyclist from other drivers. However, these types of traffic accidents can occur just about anywhere. They can occur on flat stretches of highway in bad weather or on empty city streets that are poorly lit due to ineffective road design.

Are You Covered by Insurance After Your Motorcycle Crash?Insurance difficulties are quite common after a serious motorcycle accident. Unfortunately, motorcycle accidents are likely to cause severe or even fatal injuries, and insurance companies make the most money when they do not pay out the maximum amount possible in every case. A very expensive accident may cost insurance companies a lot of money and in some cases insurance companies will deny your claim or undervalue it.
It is possible for motorcyclists and their families to fight back, however. Motorcyclists can meet with a personal injury attorney and can have that attorney handle the details of the case, from negotiating with insurance carriers to filing a claim in civil court. In many cases, motorcyclists are able to secure a larger settlement amount or fairer compensation if an attorney who is familiar with insurance laws and civil laws is handling the details of negotiations and legal claim.
Preventing Limited Visibility CollisionsA motorcyclist can take several steps to prevent low visibility crashes:
Even with all these precautions, sometimes low visibility accidents cannot be easily prevented. This is because in many cases they are caused by negligence on the part of others. For example, poor road design or poor road maintenance can lead to visibility issues that can cause a crash. In these cases, it is important to go after liable parties and to hold them accountable to ensure that others are not injured in the same way. Pursuing a civil claim can also help an injured motorcyclist get compensation for their losses.
