New York Car Accidents
Queens’ expansive road network—ranging from bustling thoroughfares like Queens Boulevard to tight neighborhood streets—poses significant dangers for motorcyclists. With traffic congestion, aggressive driving, and aging infrastructure all contributing to hazardous conditions, injury-related motorcycle crashes remain a serious and growing concern throughout the borough.
Unlike occupants in enclosed vehicles, motorcyclists lack physical protection in the event of a collision. This leaves them highly vulnerable to catastrophic injuries such as broken bones, spinal cord damage, and traumatic brain injuries—even in relatively low-speed crashes. Intersections and lane merges, particularly during peak traffic hours, are common sites of severe motorcycle accidents in Queens.
