There are reports of a serious Toronto motorcycle accident that occurred on the evening of Wednesday October 18, 2017 in the area of Wilson Heights.  This Toronto motorcycle crash occurred in the vicinity of Wilson Avenue and Faywood Boulevard in the evening at around 10 pm.  According to early reports a male motorcyclist in his 20s was seriously injured after a collision involving the motorcycle and another vehicle.  The motorcyclist was transported to a Toronto trauma hospital with serious injuries. 

First and foremost the motorcycle accident lawyers at Iacobelli Law Firm sincerely hope that the motorcycle rider makes a complete and speedy recovery.  As motorcycle riders, we are always troubled to learn of a rider involved in a serious crash. 

The specific details of this Toronto motorcycle accident are still unknown, and the accident was under investigation by the Toronto Police.  From our experience in assisting motorcycle crash victims, the vast majority of accidents are caused by drivers that simply fail to observe the motorcycle.  Some common causes of motorcycle crashes include vehicles turning left at intersections across the path of the motorcycle; vehicles pulling out of driveways; vehicles changing lanes or making u-turns.  A significant number of motorcycle crashes are avoidable if drivers paid closer attention to traffic before making turns or changing lanes.  Unfortunately, motorcycle crashes can result in very serious injuries for the rider, and sometimes, a motorcycle crash is fatal.

As motorcycle enthusiasts, the lawyers at Iacobelli Law Firm have a sincere interest in helping riders recover from motorcycle accidents.  Like the drivers and occupants of any other motor vehicle, motorcycle riders can advance claims for their losses following a motorcycle accident.  These claims usually involve multiple insurance companies, and there are important steps that must be taken to preserve rights.

A motorcycle crash in Essa Township south of Barrie Ontario, resulted in the death of a 27 year old man.  This fatal motorcycle accident happened near County Road 56 and 10th Sideroad in Essa Township, and reportedly involved another car 

First and foremost, we would like to offer our sincere condolences to the family and friends of the man who was killed in this fatal motorcycle accident in Essa Township, Ontario.

The police were investigating the circumstances of this fatal motorcycle accident.  More information is needed in order to determine who is at fault for this fatal Essa Township motorcycle accident.  If the other car involved is partially responsible for the crash, it could lead to a wrongful death claim on behalf of the family of the motorcycle rider who tragically lost his life.  The family of the man who was killed, may be able to receive compensation for the loss of the support, services and companionship of their loved one.

Unfortunately, every year many motorcyclists in Ontario are seriously injured in motorcycle crashes.  While some people hold the misconception that motorcycle riders cause these accidents, the statistics more often reveal that many motorcycle crashes are caused by other drivers.  Often, drivers of other cars are not paying enough attention and fail to see motorcycles.  Fatal motorcycle accidents often occur when other vehicles turn or pull out across the path of an approaching motorcyclist. 

Motorcycle accident claims are complex and require a lawyer with experience in this area.  They are vigorously defended on liability.  In fatal cases, the other insurance company for the other vehicle will often mobilize quickly in an effort to minimize and defeat wrongful death claims.

This afternoon, there is another report of a serious accident involving a motorcycle and a car near Front Street and Parliament Street in Toronto.  According to information reported, the motorcyclist was transported to a Toronto Hospital via EMS with serious injuries.

First and foremost we sincerely hope that the man injured in this Toronto motorycle accident makes a speedy and complete recovery from his injuries.

This summer I have had occasion to write about a number of motorycle accidents in Toronto and the GTA.  The number of motorcycle accidents in Toronto and surrounding areas in Ontario is really troubling.  Many motorcycle collisions result in severe injuries for the motorcyclist and, sometimes, the consequences are fatal.  

As I have written in a number of my previous blog posts, a great number of motorcycle collisions are entirely avoidable if drivers would simply pay more attention to the presence of motorcycles sharing our road.  We are now well into summer, and it should come as no surprise that motorcycles are all around us on the roads in Ontario.  Please remember to check blind spots before changing lanes, and look for the presence of motorycles before making turns or pulling out of parking lots.  These are the common scenarios which result in many motorycle collisions, which may have devastating consequences. 

Motorcyclists should also ride carefully, and use extra caution when riding near intersections, and leave plenty of space around other vehicles.  The use of good riding gear can also reduce the severity of injuries and help protect a motorcyclist in the event of a crash. 

If you or a loved one has been injured or killed in a motorcycle accident, do not delay in speaking with an Ontario personal injury lawyer.  We offer a free consultation for those that have been injured in motorcycle accidents in Ontario.  To learn more, or to schedule an appoitment, call Iacobelli Law Firm at 1-866-234-6093.
