Fatal Romulus Motorcycle Accident
I read a tragic story this morning about a Fatal Romulus Motorcycle Accident that happened on I-275 approaching the Huron River overpass last night. According to Romulus Police, the biker was travelling on I-275 when his bike was allegedly hit by a trailer tire that flew off of a trailer being hauled by a pick-up truck. The biker lost control, hit a wall and went over the overpass. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Police are continuing to investigate this accident.
I am very sorry to hear that this tragic motorcycle accident happened. My condolences go out to the family and friends of the biker.
Our Michigan motorcycle accident lawyers advise bikers of their legal rights. Because this motorcycle accident involved contact with another motor vehicle, the biker would have been eligible for Michigan No-Fault Insurance benefits. These benefits provide for payment of medical expenses, lost wages, attendant care services, and other benefits. Family members may also may be able to make a claim for Survivor Loss Benefits. This can include payment of funeral expenses, lost wages, and loss of other services.
In addition to these claims, the surviving family members may be entitled to file a Michigan Wrongful Death Lawsuit against the negligent driver and the owner of the vehicle and the trailer. This may depend on the results of the police investigation and who the police attribute fault in the accident.
For a complete explanation of the rights of injured bikers in Michigan, you should request our FREE BOOK, “The Ultimate Michigan Motorcycle Accident Handbook.” Furthermore, the surviving family members may have a claim against the driver of the motor vehicle for wrongful death of the bikers.
