Motorcycle Accidents in Texas
Texas roadways see a significant number of motorcycle accidents each year. According to the Texas Department of Transportation, there were over 8,000 motorcycle crashes statewide in 2022, many resulting in serious injuries or fatalities. Motorcyclists face a greater risk on the road due to their limited protection compared to passenger vehicles.
Motorcycle accidents can result in severe injuries. Here are some of the most common:
- Head and Brain Injuries – Even with a helmet, motorcyclists are at risk of concussions or traumatic brain injuries due to direct impacts on the head.
- Broken Bones – The force of a crash can cause fractures, especially in the arms, legs, and ribs.
- Road Rash – When riders slide across pavement, they can suffer deep abrasions, which may require skin grafts and lead to permanent scarring.
- Spinal Cord Injuries – Severe crashes can damage the spine, leading to temporary or permanent paralysis.
- Internal Injuries – The impact of a collision can cause internal bleeding or organ damage, requiring immediate medical attention.
