The right of way is on the motorist proceedings on the major road. The driver emerging from a side road must give precedence to anyone on the road they are trying to merge on to.<\/p>\n<p>These accidents are very common for motorcyclists. It\u2019s a lot easier to spot a vehicle on a major road, whereas it may not be so easy to spot a motorcyclist who is much, much smaller in size. Although the majority of motorcyclists wear reflective clothing and have Modulating Headlights which catch the eye of drivers as the flash, some drivers <strong>still fail<\/strong> to look out properly for motorcyclists.<\/p>\n<p><em>The sorts of injuries motorcyclists generally receive can be fairly serious<\/em>. Hitting a vehicle emerging from a side road will likely cause you to be thrown from your bike with a large amount of force. We represent a lot of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk\/motorcycle-accident-claims.php\">motorcycle accident victims here because we specialise in these sorts of personal injury cases<\/a>.
