Does The At-Fault Driver Pay For My Motorcycle Accident Damage Repairs?

The Motorcycle Legal Minute™ was created by Jason Waechter, THE Motorcycle Lawyer, to explain Michigan’s motorcycle law in a short and easy to understand way.

Motorcyclists Cannot Recover Bike’s Damage from the At-Fault Car Driver

After a Michigan motorcycle wreck, you cannot pursue the other driver or his insurance company for the payment of the damage to the bike. Not even the deductible.

But Wait... There are 3 Exceptions Most Attorneys Don’t Know!

However, there are 3 exceptions. Each requires the other driver to be mostly at-fault.

The At-Fault Driver Can Be Responsible For Your Motorcyle's Damage Under These Circumstances

Number 1: If the other driver was uninsured, you can pursue him personally.

Number 2: If your motorcycle was reasonably parked, the other guy’s insurance will pay for all the damage.

Number 3: If another motorcycle was responsible for causing the damage, that other biker’s insurance will pay.
