Drivers of larger vehicles may overlook smaller motorcycles, especially in busy traffic or when visibility is reduced. Motorcycles are less visible than other vehicles, and other drivers might fail to see them, leading to accidents. Poor road conditions or obstructions can make this issue even worse, especially in dense Charleston traffic.

Overview of Motorcycle Accidents in Charleston
Motorcycle accidents are particularly dangerous due to the lack of protection for riders. In Charleston, as in the rest of South Carolina, motorcycle accidents can lead to life-altering injuries or even death. According to national statistics, motorcyclists are more likely to suffer severe injuries than drivers or passengers in passenger vehicles. If you’ve been involved in a motorcycle accident, it’s crucial to contact an experienced attorney who understands the complexities of these cases and can help you secure the compensation you deserve.
