Why are there so many motorcycle accidents in the Raleigh, North Carolina area?
The short answer is that many drivers simply fail to pay attention to motorcyclists and this failure can result in serious and life-altering injuries, or sometimes, worse, the death of the biker. However, in our experience, by far the most frequent cause of Raleigh motorcycle wrecks is a vehicle turning across the path of a motorcyclist. Other causes of Raleigh motorcycle accidents include head-on collisions due to a driver crossing the center-line and striking the motorcycle and defective roadway conditions.

What happens in a Raleigh NC motorcycle wreck claim?
Most serious motorcycle accident claims resolve out of court with a settlement involving the insurance companies. However, if your Raleigh motorcycle accident claim does not resolve out of court with a settlement, a lawsuit can be filed. Depending on the size of the claim, that lawsuit would usually be filed in either Wake County District Court or Wake County Superior Court.
Once a lawsuit is filed, the case can still reach a settlement. Sometimes this settlement happens at mediation. If the case does not settle, then the motorcycle wreck claim will go to trial which typically happens about a year after the lawsuit is filed.
The trial of any Wake County motorcycle wreck case would be at the Wake County Courthouse in downtown Raleigh and will usually last anywhere from a few days to two weeks depending on the complexity of the case. Most trials last about three to four days.
