Miami-Dade County. Several riders on motorcylces were injured in a serious accident involved a tractor trailer in Krome Avenue in southwest Miami-Dade. This road has been closed to traffic.
In addition to the motorcyclists, a tractor trailer was jack-knifed and rolled over. A helicopter flew both of the injured people to the hospital.
This accident is being invested by the Florida Highway Patrol which has not said if anyone else was injured in the accident which remains under investigation.
This case is just another reminder of how quickly an enjoyable day of riding your motorcycle can turn into a nightmare. Everyone who owns a motorcycle needs to seriously consider purchasing uninsured motorist coverage with their bike. Although it appears that the tractor trailer would be covered by bodily injury insurance, in many of these accidents there is not enough bodily injury insurance to cover the riders' damages. This is where uninsured motorist coverage is essential to provide insurance coverage when the at-fault party does not have enough insurance to cover your injuries.
