Kentucky Motorcycle Crashes

Motorcycle accidents may account for just a small fraction of Kentucky’s total traffic collisions—roughly 1,500 out of 150,000 crashes annually—but they result in some of the most severe injuries seen on the road. With little physical protection in a crash, motorcyclists are at a far greater risk of serious or even fatal injuries than those in passenger vehicles.

Each year, Kentucky sees around 25,000 injury crashes and 700 traffic fatalities. A large portion of these tragic incidents could have been prevented. Time and again, the underlying cause comes back to one issue: driver negligence.

Whether it’s distracted driving, drunk or drug-impaired driving, excessive speeding, or simply failing to see a motorcyclist before changing lanes, reckless or careless decisions behind the wheel can have life-changing consequences.

If you or a loved one has been injured in a motorcycle crash caused by a negligent driver, you may be facing a long road ahead—physically, financially, and emotionally. From mounting medical expenses and time away from work to the mental strain of recovery, it can be difficult to know where to turn or how to move forward.
