Many Myths & Misconceptions with Michigan's Motorcycle Law:
There are so many myths and misconceptions about Michigan's confusing and often illogical Motorcycle Law. Many "personal injury lawyers" do not know the specific nuances involving Michigan motorcycle accidents. Some include:
Myth: “If I have ‘full coverage’ on my bike, I’m covered for everything.”
Answer: No.There is no standard or legal definition of “full coverage.” You need to specifically ask for the coverage you want.
Myth: “The other vehicle has to pay my medial
bills.”
Answer: It Depends. If a car, truck, van or other “Motor Vehicle” (not motorcycle) is “involved” a biker usually qualifies for No-Fault Benefits.*
Myth: “In Michigan I have three years to file claims and lawsuits.”
Answer: No.You do have three years to sue for a negligence case, however, you only have one year to do many other things.
Myth: “If I have collision coverage on my motorcycle, all my accessories and custom work is covered.”
Answer: No.
*Exception: If you are riding your own uninsured motorcycle, you will not be paid wage loss, medical bills or other No-Fault Benefits.Make sure you insure your bike.
There are many exceptions, special definitions and complex issues that cannot be explained in this material.It is not intended to be a substitute for case specific legal advice.Your legal rights greatly depend on the facts of your accident.
