Motorcycle Defect Personal Injury Case: What You Need To Know
Defects in motorcycles can be extremely life-threatening, and manufacturers are held to a very high standard to make sure the motorcycles they produce are safe for their riders.
These personal injuries could range from a simple road rash to a more serious traumatic brain injury. We can help investigate the cause of your motorcycle accident, and if appropriate consider legal action for such defects.
A defect is described by the Rhode Island and Massachusetts law as “a problem with a product that makes it unsafe for use as intended.” Every year, serious and fatal motorcycle accident personal injuries are caused by a variety of defective motorcycle parts, like:
- Brakes
- Chains
- Clutch and transmission
- Engine
Additionally, some manufacturers and distributors improperly label their helmets as DOT or Snell certified. This mislabeling may give someone an opportunity to make a defect claim. Helmets can also have design issues and flaws that decrease the ability to protect a rider during a motorcycle accident.
