What Should I Do After a Motorcycle Accident in Tulsa?

Tony Edwards, Your Oklahoma Motorcycle Accident LawyerAfter a motorcycle accident, car accident, or truck accident, you are likely overwhelmed. You should try to take the following steps to get the assistance you need and help with your future injury claim:

  • Seek medical attention. Even if an ambulance was not necessary, or if you think you were not injured, you should still seek immediate medical care. Some injuries involve delayed symptoms, including traumatic brain injury (one of the most common injuries in a motorcycle accident). Also, insurance companies can and will use any delay in treatment to argue that your injuries were not serious or that they were caused by something other than the accident. For the same reasons, you should attend every medical appointment and follow all of your doctor’s instructions throughout the recovery process.
  • Gather contact information. You should get the names and phone numbers of every person involved in or who witnessed the crash. Also, get the insurance information of anyone involved in the crash. Do not hesitate to ask to see identification if you suspect for any reason that someone may be lying to you.
  • Keep all potential evidence and relevant documents. You should keep any photos that you or someone else took at the scene of the motorcycle crash, including photos of the motorcycle and other vehicles (s) and the surrounding area. You should also hold on to your medical bills, motorcycle repair bills, and receipts of other crash-related expenses. Also, keep any letters or e-mails that you receive from insurance companies.
  • Get a copy of your crash report. You can order a copy of the collision report by going through the Oklahoma Department of Public Safety or by contacting the law enforcement agency that prepared it such as the Tulsa Police Department or Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office.
  • Report your accident. Tell your insurance company that your crash occurred. Your policy probably requires you to give notice. You should stick to the facts. You may be asked to forward a copy of the police report.
  • Don’t talk to another insurer. You are not required to talk with the other driver’s insurance company. If the insurer reaches out to you, simply refer the insurer to your lawyer at Edwards & Patterson Law.

What You Need to Know About Motorcycle Accidents

What are the Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents In Tulsa?

At Edwards & Patterson Law, our legal team can determine the cause of your motorcycle crash and identify the responsible parties by conducting an independent investigation, which may include:

  • Collecting the accident report
  • Reviewing photographs
  • Interviewing witnesses
  • Investigating the other driver’s record
  • Reviewing medical records
  • Consulting with experts
  • Reconstructing the accident

As we have seen through the years, most motorcycle accidents result from motor vehicle drivers’ failure to share the road safely with motorcyclists. Some of the leading causes of these crashes are:

  • Following too closely
  • Failing to check mirrors and blind spots
  • Speeding and reckless driving
  • Misjudging distance before turning left
  • Failing to use turn signals
  • Sharing a lane or passing too closely
  • Driving while distracted
  • Driving while impaired by alcohol, drugs, or fatigue.

In addition to driver negligence, other common causes of motorcycle accidents in Tulsa are motorcycle and vehicle defects, negligent maintenance and repair of motorcycles, and poor road conditions, including potholes and deteriorating or “soft” shoulders.
