Motorcycles, because of their size, are vulnerable to ending up in the blind spots of another motor vehicle. This is further exasperated by the size difference of vehicles. Over the last number of years vehicles have gotten quite large, while more motorcycles are entering the scene more frequently. The larger the vehicles, the more blind spots there are on the vehicle. A motorcycle sharing a road with an SUV or any vehicle for that matter requires caution and awareness on both drivers' parts.
The things you can do to help avoid wrecks caused by blind spots:
- Make sure as a motorcycle rider that you have plenty of room between you and the next vehicle.
- Be aware of busy or obstructed streets, where cars turn and they would not be able to see you.
- As a motorcycle rider, you should always be aware of what other motor vehicles are doing around you. If you spot a distracted or negligent driver, move as far away from them as possible.
- Have the proper mirrors so you can see clearly what is around you.
- Have eye protection that offers maximum road safety.
Safe driving on and around motorcycles is paramount. One wrong move can lead to a serious Florida motorcycle accident. These accidents can have serious consequences for you and your family, something we see regularly as
