Road conditions
Hazardous road conditions include potholes, fresh gravel, and construction zones. Construction zones are particularly dangers areas for motorcyclists due to the uneven, and sometime unmarked, road conditions.
Weather
Rain, snow, fog and ice increase the risk to motorcyclists.
Driving under the influence
Alcohol affects the skills essential to riding a motorcycle, balance and coordination.
Negligent drivers
Negligent drivers play a role in motorcycle crashes. For example, motorcyclists are extremely vulnerable to blind spots, as well as the other common fatal causes of accident.
Remember, Maryland is a contributory negligence state. Mean, if a motorcyclist is at all at fault for the accident, then they are barred from recovering any compensation.
