Why Motorcycle Accidents Are Different
Unlike car passengers, motorcyclists have almost no protection in a crash. Even a low-speed impact can cause life-altering injuries. While riders are often blamed unfairly, the truth is that many motorcycle accidents are caused by drivers who weren’t paying attention or failed to yield.
Common causes of motorcycle wrecks in the Aynor area include:
- Distracted driving (especially texting or phone use)
- Unsafe lane changes
- Sudden left turns at intersections
- Speeding or tailgating
- Poorly maintained roads or debris on rural highways
- Drivers failing to check blind spots before merging
These types of collisions often result in catastrophic injuries—and insurance companies are quick to minimize your claim. You need an experienced advocate on your side from day one.

Your Right to Compensation
If your motorcycle crash was caused by someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for:
- Emergency and ongoing medical care
- Lost income and reduced future earnings
- Pain, suffering, and emotional trauma
- Physical therapy or rehabilitation
- Motorcycle replacement or repair
- Long-term disability or impairment
- Wrongful death damages for surviving families
Under South Carolina’s comparative negligence rule, you can still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault—as long as you’re not more than 50% responsible.
