1 dead, 4 injured in crash involving 4 motorcycles south of Deckers
It happened after the north-bound rider, with the passenger, failed to make a turn, leading to collisions with a south-bound motorcycle and subsequent crashes, Sutherland said. The driver of the southbound motorcycle and his passenger sustained serious injuries, and riders on two other motorcycles suffered minor injuries.
Since motorcycle crashes often end in serious injuries, victims need immediate help
Motorcycle accidents are more likely to end in serious injuries or death for the motorcyclist, since the rider is not protected from the force of a collision. When a motorcycle accident happens, the injured rider needs immediate, appropriate medical care, the accident needs to be investigated, and the insurance companies need to be informed.
When a motorcycle crash is caused by negligence, additional steps need to be taken to protect the legal rights of the injured motorcyclist or the family members of someone killed in a motorcycle crash. Go here to learn more about motorcycle accidents and claims.
