Injuries and expenses of motorcycle accidents can cause problems

Last week, we discussed how motorcycle accidents can lead to serious burns. Those burns, as well as other injuries, can lead to multiple trips to the doctor, physical therapy appointments and other appointments. All of those appointments come at a cost. When you factor in the loss of income if you are unable to work because of the accident, the financial impact of the accident can be great.
