The Karney Law Firm Supports Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month

Charlotte, NC, May 15, 2017 (Newswire.com) - The beautiful weather this past week has marked a strong kick-off for the riding season in North Carolina. However, as temperatures rise, so do the number of bikers on the road. 

To raise awareness and reduce the rise in Motorcycle deaths in North Carolina, Governor Roy Cooper has declared May “Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month.”

"Having an accident is a biker's worst nightmare. We ride always concerned about what other drivers are doing on the road. Over half of the fatal motorcycle crashes involve another vehicle, and more often than not the primary fault lies with the four-wheeled driver."

Bob Karney, Owner of Karney Law Firm

While The N.C. Governor’s Highway Safety Program strongly encourages motorcycle safety, reminding motorists to share the road and watch closely for motorcycles, especially when changing lanes and at intersections, The Karney Law Firm has made it a priority to bring awareness to motorcycle safety as well. 

The Karney Law Firm has teamed up with the Charlotte CBA (Concerned Bikers Association) to promote their “Look Twice, Save A Life” campaign.  

As Karney Law Firm owner Bob Karney stated, “Having an accident is a biker’s worst nightmare. We ride always concerned about what other drivers are doing on the road. Over half of the fatal motorcycle crashes involve another vehicle, and more often than not the primary fault lies with the four-wheeled driver.”

For over 30 years, Bob Karney has built a reputation for protecting motorcyclists. From accident through recovery, The Karney Law Firm has made itself a mainstay in North Carolina motorcycle law. 

Motorcyclists are nearly five times more likely to be injured and 29 times more likely to be killed in a crash than any other vehicle. The Karney Law Firm promotes motorcycle safety year-round.
