Harrisburg Defective Motorcycle Lawyer
Riding a motorcycle comes with an extra set of risks and potential dangers beyond those faced by drivers and passengers in cars, trucks, and vans. Motorcyclists accept the threat of these hazards under the assumption that the various parts and systems on their bikes will do what they are supposed to when they are needed. In addition, many riders choose to wear and utilize other safety gear as a means of improving their safety in the event of an accident. When any of this equipment fails to function properly, the effects can be disastrous.
If you have been the victim of a motorcycle crash that was caused or worsened by an unpredictable equipment failure, contact the Harrisburg defective motorcycle lawyers of Lowenthal & Abrams, P.C., at 610-667-7511.
Beware of These Dangers
Despite their comparatively small size, motorcycles are complex machines. Complex machines have many different potential sources of trouble simply because so many more things can go wrong with them. Some possible dangers include:
- Defective tires may explode, deflate, separate, or detach from the wheel
- Improperly constructed or designed motorcycle helmets may fail to protect your head
- Malfunctioning brakes can overheat and burn a rider, or simply leave them unable to stop
- Clutch malfunctions can cause a sudden drop in speed in the midst of traffic
