Know this

What makes motorcycle accident cases different

  • 1

    Insurers often argue the rider was speeding or reckless, so evidence of fault matters even more.

  • 2

    Helmet use can affect damages in some states, depending on local law.

  • 3

    Injuries are often severe, so future medical costs need careful estimates.

Checklist

Evidence to save now

  • Photos of the bike, gear and helmet
  • Police crash report
  • Witness contact details
  • Any helmet-cam or dashcam video
  • Medical records and bills

Rules that affect your claim

Filing deadline

3 years

For most injury claims (D.C. Code § 12-301).

Fault rule

Contributory negligence

If you are found even 1% at fault, you can be barred from recovering anything. This is one of the strictest rules in the country. Pedestrians, cyclists and other vulnerable road users hit by a vehicle get a modified comparative (51% bar) rule instead. (D.C. common law; D.C. Code § 50-2204.52)

Car insurance

Choice no-fault state

No-fault coverage and the traditional right to sue can both apply, depending on the options chosen on the policy and after the crash. Which applies affects your claim.

Pending attorney review. General information, not legal advice. Deadlines can be shorter for claims against government agencies and for some case types.
