Frequently Asked Questions About Motorcycle Accidents

  • How long do I have to file a motorcycle accident claim in Texas?

     Texas law gives you two years from the accident date to file a claim. However, waiting too long can make it harder to gather evidence and prove fault.

  • What if I was not wearing a helmet? Can I still recover damages?

     Yes. Texas law does not require all riders to wear helmets, and failing to wear one does not automatically prevent you from recovering compensation. However, the insurance company may try to argue that your injuries were worse because you were not wearing one.

  • What if the driver who hit me does not have insurance?

     If the at-fault driver does not have insurance, you may be able to recover compensation through your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage.

  • Can I still recover damages if I was partially at fault?

     Yes. Texas follows a modified comparative negligence rule, meaning you can recover compensation as long as you are less than 51% responsible for the crash.
