A motorcycle accident in Florida can, and often does, result in serious injuries and even death in the worst-case scenario. Last year in our state, about 80% of motorcyclists involved in a traffic accident suffered an injury. Approximately 15% of Florida motorcycle crashes are fatal, a number that far exceeds the percentages of fatalities in other crashes.
