Motorcycle Injury Accidents Due to a Defective Product
Defects in a motorcycle or a motorcycle helmet’s manufacturing or design may be the cause of a motorcycle accident. These incidents are not due to driver negligence, but could be pursued under a Defective Product or Product Liability action. These types of cases can involve multiple defendants. A victim may file against the manufacturers, designers, suppliers, and/or assemblers of the vehicle or product that caused the motorcycle accident.
The defect may occur at the design or manufacturing stage or as a result of the failure to warn of certain dangers associated with the vehicle’s use.
