Motorcycles and deer collisions are more common than you might think

A man from Red Oak, Iowa died on Wednesday from injuries sustained when his motorcycle struck a deer. The accident happened near Stanton in southwest Iowa in Montgomery County on Highway 34. The time of the accident is around 4:10 a.m. I hear it all the time from those who are against mandatory helmet laws -that the way to reduce the number of deaths is to make other drivers more aware and paying closer attention to the traffic. But many deaths are caused by a motorcyclist losing control of the bike or from striking a deer. Here is one more instance of a deer-motorcycle collision related accident and death.

The thrill of riding a motorcycle can't be appreciated if you aren't alive. Wear your helmet.

FAQs

ATV, Bike & Motorcycle Accidents

Is there anything I can do to settle my health problems after an accident? Hit by car on bike, no treatment, and no police. Now shoulder hurts any recourse? This is not a hit and run, he paid for the damage to my bike, and I agreed he could do it out of pocket because it was less than his deductible and I thought I was fine. That night he gave me a ride home and did admit he did not look my way. He also loaned me a wheel for my bike which I did not use. He paid me with a check for the damage. I have pictures of my bike and his truck (license plate yes but a bit fuzzy) from the night. I have his name, address, phone number, and place of employment, and receipts from my bike repair. I will feel bad about renegotiating our agreement but my health is at stake. Is there anything I can do?

How do I file a claim after being in an accident? My husband was a cyclist and was hit by a car. How do I start a claim against the person who hit him?
