In the heart of Pennsylvania Dutch country is York, PA, and within this county, filled with a rich history and breathtaking landscape, is a bustling motorcycle community. One of the few places in the world where Harley Davidson manufactures its infamous motorcycles, they’ve built a thriving community.

Helping Injured Bikers Receive Compensation
Motorcycle accidents are some of the most complex claims because not only do they face the normal battles that accidents do, but they are also on an uphill battle with ill-conceived perceptions about motorcyclists and their behavior automatically being liable. It’s important to recognize that sharing the road doesn’t start and stop with motorcycles, but it takes everyone in the community to drive safely, give space, and look twice.
York Motorcycle Accident Statistics
York County, Pennsylvania, is stressing a Share the Road campaign for all drivers who are out on the roads. After an influx of fatal motorcycle accidents, the York County Coroner declared that “2023 was one of the worst years in York County for motorcycle deaths in the past 11 years”. 2023 saw 17 motorcycle fatalities. Whereas 2024 has only had 6 fatalities as of June.
Left turns are the number one factor in motorcycle accidents and fatalities. Drivers have a much harder time seeing and judging the speed of motorcycles on the road. Depth perception and visibility combine to create this deadly situation when crossing lanes of traffic to turn left. Remembering the left turn problem will keep drivers more aware on the road and help everyone arrive alive.
