Many Missouri motorists are passionate about riding their motorcycle. Riding a motorcycle offers the driver an experience, unlike a car or truck. However, many motorcycle accidents can often become serious due to the motorcyclist’s lack of protection. When up against a car or a truck on a roadway, a motorcyclist can quickly become the injured victim in an auto accident. Most motorcyclists have learned to drive defensively, but distracted drivers remain on Missouri roads.
