The Galveston motorcycle accident attorneys express their deepest sympathies to the family and friends of Mr. David Tally.
Almost 40% of Motorcycle Crashes with Other Vehicles Occur when the Other Vehicle Suddenly Turns Left in Front of the Motorcycle
According to research data analyzed by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), 39% of all two-vehicle motorcycle crashes in 2011 involved another vehicle turning left in front of the motorcycle. Our Galveston motorcycle accident attorneys point out that research studies reveal that car and truck drivers often fail to perceive the approach of motorcycles and miscalculate the necessary gaps to leave when they are turning in front of the smaller vehicles.
