3 Ways You Can Help Avoid a Motorcycle Accident This Summer

Memorial Day is behind us, the summer has (unofficially) begun, and May – the month Governor Corbett declared to be Pennsylvania Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month – is coming to a close.

As motorcycle season continues in the Commonwealth, it is important to remember some tips to help avoid a motorcycle accident.

Tips to Remember

• Know your limits. Only drive where you are comfortable and can do so safely.
• Wear safety gear. This includes, but may not be limited to, a motorcycle helmet.
• Educate yourself. You can, for example, visit the PennDOT Live Free Ride Alive website to learn more about motorcycle safety. Additionally, it may be important to take an approved motorcycle safety train course.

Contact an Attorney

It is also important to remember to contact an experienced motorcycle accident lawyer if you have been injured or if have lost a loved one in a crash. We hope that everyone has an enjoyable summer and that this summer is a safe one for motorcyclists.
