Orange County Motorcycle Accident Statistics

Motorcycle accidents are tragically common in Orange County, where the combination of heavy traffic, fast-moving freeways, and frequent construction makes the roads particularly dangerous for riders. According to data from the California Office of Traffic Safety, Orange County ranks high for motorcycle crashes, with hundreds of injuries and fatalities occurring each year.

• In 2021, 726 people were killed or injured in Orange County motorcycle crashes. 
• Common causes of these accidents include drivers failing to see motorcyclists, lane-splitting accidents, and speeding.
• Motorcycle riders often suffer serious injuries like road rash, fractures, traumatic brain injuries (TBI), and spinal cord injuries in these crashes.

Dangerous Roads and Intersections for Motorcyclists in Orange County

Certain roads and intersections in Orange County are especially hazardous for motorcyclists due to their design, traffic patterns, or heavy congestion:

• Pacific Coast Highway (PCH): Popular with motorcyclists due to its scenic views, PCH also sees many accidents due to sharp turns, distracted drivers, and vehicles crossing lanes unexpectedly.
• Santiago Canyon Road: This curvy road is another favorite for riders, but its narrow lanes and sharp turns create a higher risk of single-vehicle accidents, particularly when speeding or poor road conditions are involved.
• Interstate 5 and 405 Freeways: These major highways have heavy traffic and frequent lane changes, which pose a particular threat to motorcyclists, especially in merging zones and near on- and off-ramps.
• Harbor Boulevard and Katella Avenue in Anaheim: These roads see a lot of traffic, especially near tourist destinations, and have a history of accidents involving motorcyclists due to drivers not seeing them.

What Kind of Compensation Is Available in a Motorcycle Accident Case?

Victims of motorcycle accidents may be eligible for compensation covering a wide range of damages:

• Medical Expenses: This includes emergency care, surgeries, hospital stays, rehabilitation, physical therapy, and future medical treatments.
• Lost Wages: Compensation for time you missed from work due to your injuries, as well as future loss of earning capacity if your injuries prevent you from returning to your job.
• Pain and Suffering: Non-economic damages for the physical pain and emotional suffering caused by the accident.
• Property Damage: Reimbursement for the repair or replacement of your motorcycle and any other personal property damaged in the accident.
• Wrongful Death: In cases of fatal motorcycle accidents, surviving family members can seek compensation for funeral expenses, loss of financial support, and loss of companionship.

What Is the Statute of Limitations for Motorcycle Accident Cases in Orange County?

In California, motorcycle accident victims have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. If the accident involved a government entity, such as a crash with a public transit vehicle, the statute of limitations may be shorter—typically six months.

It’s crucial to act quickly after a motorcycle accident to preserve evidence and ensure you meet all legal deadlines. Delaying legal action can jeopardize your ability to recover compensation.

The Role of an Attorney in Your Motorcycle Accident Case

Motorcycle accidents are often more severe than other types of vehicle collisions, and they can be complicated by issues like bias against motorcyclists and disputes over fault. Having an experienced motorcycle accident lawyer is key to building a strong case and securing fair compensation.

At Alvandi Law Group, P.C., our attorneys will:

• Investigate the Accident: We gather evidence, including police reports, witness statements, surveillance footage, and accident reconstruction to build a strong case.
• Deal with Insurance Companies: Insurance adjusters often try to minimize claims, especially in motorcycle cases. We handle all negotiations to ensure you get the compensation you deserve.
• Determine Liability: We’ll investigate all potentially liable parties, including the other driver, vehicle manufacturers (if a defect played a role), or even the government (if road hazards contributed to the crash).
• Fight for Maximum Compensation: Whether through negotiation or litigation, we will pursue the full compensation you’re entitled to for your injuries, lost wages, and more. We have the resources, experience, and dedication needed to take on tough motorcycle accident cases and deliver results.
