I was hit by a car while riding my motorcycle and was injured because the car ran a stop sign; what are my rights?

Please accept the response to the above question from the accident lawyer in Boca Raton (injury attorney Fort Lauderdale, accident lawyer Lauderhill, injury lawyer Lauderdale Lakes, accident attorney Coral Springs, accident lawyer Weston, injury attorney Pembroke Pines, accident attorney Cooper City).

There are a lot of questions to be addressed here. Since the car was at fault and the person on the motorcycle is injured, the person on the motorcycle is entitled to “damages” that were caused in the accident.

So for example, if the motorcycle itself was damaged, then he would have a claim to have the motorcycle repaired by the driver of the car or the car’s applicable insurance company. This would be a property damage claim and generally cars on the road are required to have $10,000 of property damage insurance to fix property damaged in accidents.

Second, since the person is injured, they would be entitled to any personal injury damages that resulted from the accident. This could include lost wages, medical bills, and pain and suffering, generally.
