Motorcycle-Involved Crashes in San Francisco
Crashes involving motorcycles, particularly at busy intersections like 16th St and Valencia St, often lead to serious consequences for riders due to the lack of protective barriers. The Mission District is a high-traffic area, with both dense vehicle movement and frequent pedestrian crossings, increasing the risk of collisions.
Motorcyclists are at greater risk of injury in accidents with larger vehicles, especially during daytime hours when traffic volumes are higher. Following such incidents, it is essential for victims to receive prompt medical attention and to document the crash thoroughly.
Those injured in a motorcycle crash may be eligible to pursue compensation for medical expenses, property damage, and time away from work—especially if the collision was caused by another driver’s negligence.
