Motorcycle Accident Attorneys – Lawyers in Knoxville, Tennessee

Tennessee motorists must use great caution in sharing the roads with motorcycles and bicycles. Motorcycles, because of their design, do not provide the same external protection as other motor vehicles. Thus, motorcyclists are much more vulnerable to serious injuries if they are involved in traffic accidents. In fact, studies show that motorcyclists are about 15 times more likely to die than are the automobile drivers and passengers involved in any particular motorcycle accident. The attorneys at our Knoxville and Sevierville, Tennessee offices have extensive knowledge about the rules pertaining to motorcycle accidents. We will provide you with efficient and effective service as we fight to protect your rights and maximize your recovery. To speak with our motorcycle accident attorneys, contact Baker Associates in Tennessee today.

Motorcycle Safety and Understanding Your Rights

If you are involved in a motorcycle accident, contacting one of the lawyers at our Tennessee offices is an important first step in protecting your rights. Our attorneys work to ensure that each person they represent fully understands the elements of the law that apply to their case. As a responsible motorcyclist, you should be aware of Tennessee motorcycle laws intended to help prevent motorcycle accidents.  The rules set out in these laws include:

• If you have a passenger, your vehicle must be equipped with a passenger seat
• Your vehicle must have a mirror
• Unless your vehicle is equipped with a windshield, you must wear protective eyewear
• You are also required to wear a protective helmet
• The operator of a motorcycle shall not overtake and pass in the same lane occupied by the vehicle being overtaken
• Tennessee law defines victims of motorcycle accidents in which reckless, drunk, or impaired drivers are at fault as victims of crime, and it therefore provides them with the ability to receive compensation
