While many motorcyclists thrive on the ease and freedom of traveling on the open road, there are significant safety drawbacks to operating a vehicle with far less protection than a traditional motor vehicle. Motorcyclists can be seriously injured when other drivers are negligent, roads are poorly maintained, or for a variety of other reasons. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the number of deaths on motorcycles is roughly 29 times the number of passenger vehicles per mile traveled.

A motorcycle is not regarded as a motor vehicle under New York’s No-Fault laws, meaning that motorcyclists are not entitled to medical and lost wage benefits under the No-Fault laws. However, the tradeoff is that a victim in a motorcycle accident is not subject to the serious injury threshold and can file a claim against the liable party even for injuries that would not otherwise pass the serious injury requirement under New York’s Insurance Law.
