Common motorcycle accident injuries — broken bones, brain damage, amputation

Many motorcycle riders are aware of the risks when they take to the road on their bikes. Even relatively minor motorcycle accidents can cause severe injuries. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has released statistics showing that motorcycle riders are 300 percent more likely to be injured in an accident than someone who's an occupant in a car involved in an accident.

Many riders are taught to ride defensively. But even the most defensive riders may be involved in an accident that can lead to leg injuries, road rash, arm injuries and back and neck injuries, and even death, to name a few common types of motorcycle accident injuries.

Other common injuries may include:

  • Soft tissue injuries
  • Foot fractures
  • Pelvic fractures
  • Head injuries
  • Brain damage
  • Internal bleeding
  • Amputated limbs
  • And in some cases, death
