What Evidence Matters in a Motorcycle Accident Case?

Michigan uses comparative-fault principles, so evidence becomes especially important when fault is disputed. Police reports, witness accounts, photographs, video, and vehicle damage can help establish the sequence of events.

A case may also call for reviewing available surveillance or dashcam footage, medical records, insurance policies, roadway and weather conditions, and employment and wage-loss records. Some cases benefit from accident reconstruction or visibility analysis, particularly where a driver says the motorcycle was difficult to see.
