Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents in Boston
Motorcycle crashes often occur due to the negligence of others, such as careless or reckless drivers or government entities that fail to maintain roads properly. The manufacturers of defective motorcycle parts might also be responsible.
Some of the most common contributing factors include the following:
- Distracted driving
- Speeding
- Driving under the influence
- Unsafe lane changes
- Failure to yield
- Opening car doors into traffic, or "dooring"
- Motorcycle lane splitting
- Potholes and other road maintenance failures
Staying alert for these dangers can help riders avoid some accidents, but crashes occur even when a biker is careful. If you have been injured in an accident, our Boston motorcycle injury attorneys can determine the cause and fight to hold the responsible parties accountable.

Common Injuries From Boston Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle riders are more vulnerable to serious injuries than motorists. Common injuries riders suffer include the following:
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Road rash and skin abrasions
- Broken bones
- Spinal cord injuries
- Nerve damage
- Severe burns
- Internal bleeding
- Organ damage
- Limb loss
- Disfigurement
Because riders are so vulnerable to impacts, they often suffer severe and catastrophic injuries, causing permanent disabilities and life-altering consequences. While wearing a helmet reduces the risk of head injuries, riders can still suffer severe brain injuries. These injuries generally lead to high medical costs and long recovery times.
Types of Motorcycle Accident Cases We Handle

- Car accidents
- Truck crashes

Steps To File a Claim for a Motorcycle Accident in Boston, MA
If you have been hurt in a motorcycle crash, speak to an attorney about pursuing maximum compensation. The first thing to do is get medical treatment for your injuries.
Take the following steps after a motorcycle crash to protect your right to financial recovery:
- Get immediate medical attention. Even if you don’t think you have been seriously hurt, get evaluated by a doctor. Some injuries aren’t immediately apparent. Meanwhile, medical treatment will establish a valuable paper trail documenting your injuries and their connection to the accident.
- Report the accident to your insurance company. Let your insurer know about the crash as soon as possible. Just report the facts, but avoid discussing fault.
- Do not talk to representatives of the other driver’s insurance company without an attorney. Insurers will try to twist your words to use them against you. A motorcyclist rights lawyer in Boston can protect your interests and preserve your claims.
- Gather evidence. Photograph the accident scene and the damage, and take notes of all details. Get contact information from any witnesses. Collect all documentation regarding the accident, including the police report, your medical records and bills, insurance documents, and pay stubs showing missed time from work.
- Consult an experienced motorcycle accident attorney in Boston, MA. At Dibella Law, we offer a free consultation and work on a contingency fee basis in personal injury matters.
Massachusetts has a three-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims. The clock usually starts running on the accident date, and missing your deadline can jeopardize your right to claim compensation. Our team is here to prepare your claim and handle the case every step of the way, pursuing maximum compensation so you can focus on recovery.
WHAT COMPENSATION CAN YOU CLAIM AFTER A BOSTON MOTORCYCLE CRASH?
Each motorcycle claim is unique, and the recoverable compensation amount depends on the details of your case. Factors that determine the value of your claim include the severity of your injuries, losses, and the percentage of fault assigned to the other driver.
For this reason, it’s important to consult a seasoned Boston motorcycle accident lawyer. Please do not accept the first settlement offer from an insurance company; leave the negotiating to our law firm. The team at DiBella Law Injury and Accident Lawyers has worked with many Boston motorcycle accident victims and understands the lifelong impact of injuries.
Compensation for a motorcycle accident may cover the following:
- Current and future medical expenses
- Compensation for a permanent disability
- Lost wages
- Property damage or loss
- Compensation for future loss of ability to earn a living
- Scarring and disfigurement
- Emotional distress
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Punitive damages when the court deems them appropriate for the case

BOSTON AND MASSACHUSETTS ROADS TO WATCH OUT FOR WHILE ON A MOTORCYCLE
- Interstate 93 (I-93): Several sections of I-93 in and around Boston rank among the top 10 deadliest roads in the state. The high traffic volume and speed on this highway could make it particularly dangerous for motorcyclists.
- Storrow Drive: This road in Boston is known for its low bridges and sudden exits, which often catch drivers off guard. These features could be especially hazardous for motorcyclists who need to react quickly to changing traffic conditions.
- Massachusetts Turnpike (I-90): The interchange between I-495 and the Mass Pike is particularly dangerous, with hundreds of car accidents each year on average. This high-traffic area could pose risks for motorcyclists.
- Route 1: This road, also known as the Boston-Providence Turnpike, is a major north-south route in the city and sees many car accidents.
- Interstate 95 (I-95): While not specific to Boston, I-95 is considered one of the most dangerous highways in Massachusetts, with high fatality rates per mile.
It’s important to note that these roads are generally dangerous for all vehicles, not just motorcycles. Motorcyclists face additional risks due to their smaller size and lack of protection compared to cars.

Frequently Asked Questions About Motorcycle Accidents
Do I Need a Lawyer if I Was Partially at Fault for the Motorcycle Accident?
Massachusetts has a modified comparative negligence rule, meaning you can seek damages if you are less than 51% at fault. However, the compensation you recover will be reduced in proportion to your share of the fault. A Boston motorcycle crash lawyer can protect your rights to full compensation by gathering evidence, establishing the other party’s negligence, and refuting allegations that you caused your accident.
How Much Does It Cost To Hire a Motorcycle Accident Lawyer?
Our attorneys work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless we win your case. If you collect compensation, we collect a pre-determined percentage as our fee.
What Evidence Is Important To Collect After a Motorcycle Accident?
To build the strongest case possible, you need objective evidence demonstrating what happened and who was at fault. Key documentation can include accident photos, police reports, medical records, witness testimony, and insurance claim details.
Will My Motorcycle Insurance Rates Increase After an Accident?
The impact of a crash on insurance depends on fault and the insurance provider. Being found liable is more likely to result in higher premiums, though the specifics may vary by insurer.
What Are the Helmet Laws in Massachusetts, and Do They Affect My Case?
Massachusetts requires all motorcycle riders and passengers to wear helmets. However, failing to wear one does not necessarily disqualify you from recovering damages, but it may show you were at least partially at-fault for your injuries, which can affect the amount of compensation available.
