Motorcycle accidents in St. Augustine often result from:
Drivers failing to yield or check blind spots
Distracted or impaired driving
Speeding or aggressive driving
Unsafe intersections and left-turn collisions
Poor road conditions, debris, or construction zones
Tourist drivers unfamiliar with local roads
Because riders have little physical protection, accidents frequently cause:
Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
Fractures and crushed bones
Severe road rash and disfigurement
Internal injuries and organ damage
Wrongful death
Helmet Laws – Riders over 21 may ride without helmets if they carry $10,000 in medical coverage, but lack of a helmet can still affect injury claims.
Comparative Negligence – Under Florida’s Comparative Negligence Law, even if you’re partly at fault, you may still recover damages.
Statute of Limitations – Motorcycle injury claims generally must be filed within 2 years.
Insurance Issues – Unlike cars, motorcycles are not covered by Florida’s no-fault (PIP) insurance, so injury claims often go directly against negligent drivers.
Our attorneys fight for full recovery, including:
Emergency medical care and surgery
Rehabilitation and long-term medical treatment
Lost income and reduced earning ability
Pain and suffering
Motorcycle repairs or replacement
Wrongful death compensation for families

Q1: Can I still recover damages if I wasn’t wearing a helmet?
Yes. You may still pursue a claim, though the defense may argue your injuries were worsened by not wearing one.
Q2: Are motorcycle accidents treated the same as car accidents in Florida?
No. Motorcycles are excluded from Florida’s no-fault (PIP) system, which means victims often pursue claims directly against negligent drivers.
Q3: Who may be liable in a motorcycle accident?
Drivers, government entities (for unsafe roads), construction companies, or other negligent parties may share liability.
Q4: How long do I have to file a motorcycle accident claim?
In Florida, most claims must be filed within 2 years, but it’s best to act quickly so evidence isn’t lost.
Q5: Why should I hire a local attorney?
