if someone is on a motorcycle and they
0:06
encounter a car or a truck they are
0:09
going to be very seriously injured every
0:12
single time and so I have had motorcycle
0:16
cases where somebody calls and they’ve
0:18
got 19 broken bones and a brain bleed
0:20
and a 16-year-old kid is driving and I
0:23
say well I’m if I can’t find good
0:25
coverage I’ll work for free and and we
0:28
will do that then
0:30
if we do find good coverage I assure you
0:33
they will blame the rider they will
0:35
attack you know uh the motorcyclist for
0:39
doing something as unsafe as riding a
0:42
motorcycle but usually the biggest
0:44
challenge is finding coverage for
0:46
someone I mean currently I’m working on
0:48
a case where someone lost their leg
0:50
driver had $25,000 in coverage I have a
0:53
case where someone broke 19 bones and
0:56
will never be the same person and has a
0:59
traumatic brain injury
1:00
I’ve had people very seriously injure
1:03
their knees their legs their back and
1:07
they’re simply is Almost Never Enough
1:09
coverage and in this area you can opt
1:13
out of the state minimum uninsured
1:17
coverage on a motorcycle which is a big
1:19
mistake if you’re going to be driving
1:21
riding a motorcycle riding a bicycle
1:24
your un and underinsured coverage can
1:27
and will apply and that’s where you can
1:29
protect your yourself from those drivers
1:31
who are not sufficiently insured in the
1:34
event of a serious crash and every time
1:36
there’s a bicycle or a motorcycle
1:38
involved it’s a serious crash
