Motorcycle Hit by a Semi Accident MN
Semi drivers have a higher level of duty of care because they are professional drivers. When semi drivers are issued a commercial drivers’ license (CDL), they are required to obey all of the state and federal regulations and drive responsibly so that they maintain control of their rig at all times. If they violate any of the laws and regulations, they are subject to fines, suspensions or even revocation of their CDL.

Our attorneys are representing a motorcyclist who, while making a left turn, was hit by a semi passing illegally on the left. Tragically, following the accident, the motorcyclist had to have his leg amputated.

Motorcycle Hit by a Semi Accident Investigation
Our team of semi accident attorneys will conduct an independent investigation into the accident. If necessary, we hire accident specialists to reconstruct the motorcycle semi accident. This visual presentation of the accident is very effective in building a persuasive, winning case.
We also visit the accident scene, taking pictures at the scene, taking pictures of the vehicles and interviewing witnesses and first responders. We need answers to the following questions:
- Was the semi speeding prior to hitting the motorcycle?
- Was the semi going too fast for weather or road conditions?
- Did the semi try to stop? (skid marks?)
- Were all of the brakes working properly?
- Were the mirrors on the semi adjusted properly?
- Were the mirrors clean?
- Was the windshield clean?
- Was there evidence of distraction in the cab? (magazines, books, food, TV, etc.)
- Was there evidence of drug or alcohol use?
We represent victims of motorcycle vs. semi accidents, including motorcycle turning right semi accidents, motorcycle turning left semi accidents and fatal motorcycle semi accidents. A motorcycle vs. semi accident may include the following serious injuries: amputation, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury and collapsed lung injury.
