Motorcycle passenger accidents are a good category to look at because they contain unexpected results. Let me tell you why. If you're a passenger on a motorcycle, you have the same rights as any other passenger in any other motor vehicle. And other motorists have to follow the rules of the road. But if you're a passenger on a motorcycle and you live somewhere else, you may have uninsured motorist coverage on your car, a spouse's car, or a relative's car, and the home in which you live that will provide additional coverage in addition to the motor vehicle that caused the accident. So if you're a passenger, talk to us. Because you may not be limited to the same amount of coverage that the driver is. We might be able to find you more money, and that's a better thing.
