Some of us are guilty of speeding to some degree, however, sometimes it can cause extremely serious damage. Elite Driving School’s website defines speeding as driving above the posted speed limit or too fast for the road conditions. And according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), speeding makes up one-third of all fatal automobile crashes. We at America’s Consumer Lawyer are here to ensure that your rights are protected under the law and that you are fully compensated for any injuries or losses as a result of another driver’s negligence.
Speeding while driving poses risks to other drivers, but an even greater risk to motorcyclists. When a motorcyclist gets in an accident with a speeding vehicle, the damage is typically much more severe to the motorcyclist for a few reasons. A car can weigh upwards of 4,000 pounds, while most motorcycles weigh roughly 700 pounds. This causes a much greater force exerted on the motorcycle, and thus more physical damage to the motorcyclist and motorcycle. Motorcyclists also do not have a vehicle surrounding them, and it is possible that the motorcycle does not contain airbags. This means that the victim themselves likely gets the physical impact of the speeding accident, resulting in devastating injuries due to one’s negligence.
Speeding can have serious consequences ranging from fines to a possible driver’s license suspension if you are caught speeding enough times. In some cases, this is reckless driving, which is a misdemeanor and can result in jail time and other penalties, especially with an injured party. The number of fatalities that result from speeding is shocking when we take into account the fact that we have control over the speed that we choose to drive at. Yet, some drivers do not consider the risks that it can pose to others in certain situations. The driver that is speeding will always be the party at fault, given typically normal circumstances.
