When you've been injured in a motorcycle accident, you want an experienced lawyer to help you get full and fair compensation for your injuries. When you are involved in an accident while riding a motorcycle, even at low speeds with all available safety gear, the injuries sustained can still be serious. As a bicyclist in northern California, you have as much right to the road as any motor vehicle, including cars, trucks, buses, delivery vans and light rails. If you have been injured on a motorcycle because another motorist made a left turn into your path, you want an experienced motorcycle injury lawyer to help you get full and fair compensation for your losses. Under California law, a driver may not change lanes on any road unless the lane change can be completed with reasonable safety, and only after giving an appropriate signal to other drivers. When you’re on a motorcycle, any defect or irregularity in the roadway can put you at risk for serious injury. When you have suffered physical injury or property loss while riding a motorcycle in California, you generally look to the other driver’s insurance company to seek recovery for your losses. You want an experienced lawyer to help you gain full and fair compensation for your losses as a result of other drivers failing to obey traffic signals. We provide comprehensive results-based counsel to individuals who have suffered injury while riding a bicycle. We are Fully Prepared to Aggressively Represent You.

Left Turn Accident Collision

San Francisco | San Jose | Oakland | San Rafael CA

If you have been injured on a motorcycle because another motorist made a left turn into your path, you want an experienced motorcycle injury lawyer to help you get full and fair compensation for your losses. Under the California Vehicle Code, any driver intending to make a left turn must yield the right of way to all vehicles (including motorcycles) lawfully coming from the other direction and close enough to constitute a hazard (California Vehicle Code, Section 21801). Unfortunately, many drivers fail to exercise the necessary degree of care to determine if a motorcycle is approaching and how much time they have until it arrives. Others simply assume that you will yield to them since they are bigger.

At Weber & Nierenberg, we have more than a quarter of a century of experience representing motorcycle injury victims, including countless motorcyclists injured in left-turn accidents, throughout the greater San Francisco Bay area and northern California.

Motorcycle Accidents | Left Hand Turns

One of the most frequent causes of a motorcycle accident injury is an illegal left hand turn made by a careless or negligent motorist. According to state law, a driver making a left-hand turn must yield to any vehicle lawfully coming the other way that will cross the path of the turn before it is completed. Many car and truck drivers either fail to accurately assess whether a turn can be safely completed or fail to use the necessary care to see a motorcycle coming. Even though you may not collide with the other vehicle, the need to unexpectedly and quickly brake may cause you to lose control of your bike.

We help motorcycle accident victims who have sustained all types of injuries, including serious and catastrophic losses such as broken bones, scarring and disfigurement, traumatic brain injury (TBI), spinal cord trauma, paralysis, and amputation. We also represent families and individuals who have lost a loved one in wrongful death claims involving motorcycle crashes.

We will help you seek recovery for all losses sustained in a left-hand turn accident, from lost wages or income to medical expenses, physical pain and suffering, and the loss of companionship or consortium.
