Texas Motorcycle Helmet Law

Texas law requires all motorcycle riders who are under the age of 21 to wear a motorcycle helmet while the vehicle is in operation. Older riders can choose not to wear a helmet if they have current and applicable insurance.

Choosing not to wear a helmet is not good for two reasons:

  • Injury risk:
    Without a motorcycle helmet, you dramatically increase your risk of suffering a permanent head or brain injury in a crash. The majority of deaths in motorcycle accidents are suffered by riders with no helmets.
  • Liability risk:
    Furthermore, if you get hit while not wearing a helmet, then you run the risk of increasing your own liability for any damage related to your head injury. The defendant could argue that you knowingly chose to increase your risk of a head injury by not wearing a helmet and, therefore, they should not be fully liable for it.

What Damages Can You Sue For?

When we determine who is liable for your motorcycle accident and by how much, we can start to prepare a claim to file against them. An important part of your case is calculating how much money is owed to you, which is called your damages. In a motorcycle accident claim, you can seek non-economic and economic damages that reflect how much money, health, and happiness you have lost due to the crash that someone else caused.

Typical damages to pursue in a motorcycle accident claim include:

Medical treatments
The value of all your necessary medical treatments related to your motorcycle accident injuries should be paid to you through a settlement or award. We work diligently to calculate your future medical care, too, not just what you have already received.
Lost wages
If your income has been reduced because you cannot continue to work due to your injuries, then we can demand that income and the income you won’t earn in the future as part of your economic damages.
Pain and suffering
The physical pain, mental anguish, and emotional suffering you have experienced because of your injuries can be translated into a monetary recovery as a type of non-economic damage.
Permanent disability
When a motorcycle accident victim suffers a permanent disability, which is often the case, additional non-economic damages can be paid to them to account for the hardships and costs that will be endured due to that disability.

Start Your Motorcycle Accident Case Sooner Than Later

Don’t wait too long to take legal action after being in a wreck. Texas has a brief statute of limitations for injury claims. Once it expires, you cannot demand a recovery from the liable party, even if you have an excellent case that proves beyond any doubt that they alone caused your injuries.
