Motorcycle Accidents Attorneys In Ann Arbor, Michigan
Understanding Michigan Motorcycle Laws and Insurance Coverage
Michigan is home to a vibrant motorcycle community, with nearly 270,000 motorcycles registered as of 2013 one of the highest counts in the country. The state’s scenic routes offer breathtaking views but can also present dangers such as blind curves, poor visibility, and risky interactions with other vehicles. Unlike drivers of cars and trucks, motorcyclists are not required to carry no-fault insurance. However, no-fault benefits may still apply when a motorcycle is involved in a collision with a motor vehicle, such as a car or truck. These benefits typically do not extend to accidents involving only motorcycles or wildlife, like deer. Understanding this distinction is critical in determining your rights after an accident.

Why Legal Experience Matters After a Motorcycle Crash
Motorcycle accidents can happen for many reasons, including dangerous road conditions, distracted or impaired drivers, and excessive speed. Unlike enclosed vehicles, motorcycles offer little protection, which means the risk of serious or fatal injury is significantly higher. Michigan law allows motorcyclists full use of traffic lanes and the right to ride two abreast; however, lane splitting and riding between lanes is illegal. Because these laws can be complex and insurance companies may resist paying what’s fair, having an experienced motorcycle accident attorney on your side is essential. If you’ve been injured while riding, contact Biggs & Gunst P.C. today to protect your rights and secure the compensation you deserve.
