Road Rash Degrees in Motorcycle Accidents Explained

Jul 20, 2023

California has the nation’s largest number of registered motorcycles with over 808,000 as of 2019. But when motorcycle accidents happen, the injury rate is almost four times higher than that of passenger cars. Additionally, when compared to accidents involving light trucks, motorcyclists experience an injury rate nearly seven times higher.

How to File a California Motorcycle Accident Injury Claim

One of the most common types of motorcycle accident injuries is road rash – a form of abrasion to the skin that is caused due to friction. In the paragraphs below, we will review how road rash injuries are classified according to degree, discuss how to file a personal injury claim for financial compensation if you’ve been injured as a motorcyclist, and provide information on how to secure a cash settlement for damages related to hospital bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more.

What are the Different Degrees of Motorcycle Road Rash?

When you suffer a burn injury, a classification of either first, second, or third-degree is typically applied. The same is true for road rash injuries suffered in motorcycle accidents. First-degree road rash injuries are the least severe, and the severity increases as the classification moves from second to third degree.

Let’s review road rash degrees in more detail:

First-degree road rash: A first-degree road rash injury is typically considered minor and can include symptoms such as small bruises, tenderness, and slight bleeding. First-degree road rash injuries are characterized by bruising or damage to the upper layer of the skin. There is a low chance of permanent scarring with first-degree road rash injuries, and home treatment is usually sufficient. To prevent infection, injured victims can wash the wound area with soap and warm water.
Second-degree road rash: A second-degree road rash injury occurs when the skin’s lower layers are damaged. The symptoms may include swelling, bleeding, and exposed nerves or tendons. These types of motorcycle injuries cause more pain for the rider than those who have suffered a first-degree injury. Scarring is very common with second-degree road rash. Accordingly, it is important that victims of these injuries keep their wounds clean and get medical attention as soon as possible.
Third-degree road rash: A third-degree road rash injury is the most severe type. Motorcycle riders can lose large portions of skin when sustaining third-degree road rash injuries. Third-degree road rash is characterized by skin flaking off and swelling, and it can also cause deep wounds. As a result, victims may experience severe pain or even disfigurement. The scarring is almost always permanent in third-degree injuries. For those who have suffered third-degree road rash, it is vital that they seek medical treatment immediately – an exam by a medical professional is strongly recommended to prevent infection.

How to Avoid Road Rash Motorcycle Accident Injuries

Motorcyclists can take precautions in an effort to prevent road rash injuries. Some of the more common approaches include:

Leather chaps or long pants made of a sturdier material
Fitted jackets
Boots which include coverings over the ankles
Shin guards
Gloves
Helmets

Additionally, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) offers tips for motorcyclists to stay safe on the roadways:

Be Familiar With Your Motorcycle: Riders should be sure to take an appropriate amount of time to get properly acquainted with their machines – particularly whenever upgrading to a new bike.
Maintain Your Motorcycle: Ensuring that your bike receives regularly scheduled maintenance is a great way to keep it performing at optimum level, but it can also help prevent an unfortunate accident leading to serious or even catastrophic injuries.
Ride Defensively: Motorcyclists are at an obvious disadvantage when it comes to potential collisions with cars, trucks, and tractor trailers sharing the roadways. Accordingly, it’s recommended that motorcyclists drive defensively and vigilantly at all times. Be aware of blinds spots for both cars and trucks, and ride with your lights on during the day and night.
Obey the Rules of the Road: Following posted speed limits, lane markings, and all traffic signals is not only common sense, but it can also help ensure that you get to your destination safely.
Monitor Weather Conditions: Weather can change in an instant, and inclement conditions can make your motorcycle trip inherently dangerous. Accordingly, always check the weather forecast for the day before heading out on your bike.
Never Drive Under the Influence: As mentioned above, motorcyclists are unfortunately much more likely to die in drunk or drug-induced crashes. Driving a motorcycle under the influence of any type of substance is strongly discouraged (not to mention illegal).
Complete a Motorcycle Safety Course: The California Highway Patrol offers a R.I.D.E. Right motorcyclist safety course which includes a “hands on experience that will teach the necessary skills so you can be a Responsible, Informed, Disciplined, and Equipped rider.” Other benefits include a DMV skills test waiver and possible insurance breaks.
Be Visible to Other Motorists: Motorcyclists should never assume they are visible to cars and trucks sharing the roadways. Wearing bright colors or reflective clothing and driving with your headlights on can help ensure that you’re always seen by other drivers.
Keep a First-Aid Kit: In the event of an accident that leads to an injury, a standard first-aid kit can be useful. Keeping a kit inside your bike is strongly recommended.

I was represented by Mr Dordulian and Armen and they brought a lot of comfort during a stressful time. From the first call I made to DLG. I felt at ease and confident this firm could handle my car accident case. My attorney knew what he was doing, very knowledgeable! His paralegal assistants were AMAZING. They made everything easy. I had to do very little work on my end. Any questions or concerns , they were to help . They responded very quickly, usually within the day!

I would like to express how delighted I was with the work ethics this law firm uphold. I believe that the face of this law firm is at the front door, that would be the secretary. She’s pleasant, kind, respectful and most importantly professional. To my lawyer Joseph Ellias, thank you for your time and dedication you gave to my lawsuit. I know you worked your behind off on my case and I thank you. I can honestly say that I was very pleased and surprised with the amount I received.

I would say I have had the best experince with Dordulian Law Group so far. The ladies that talk to you are great to deal with. I personally dealt with Tracy and Wendy but I can honestly say that I would definitely call them if I ever need them. We also got a welcome gift from Dordulian Law Group and the case manager Rafi who came to drop it off personally was great and kind. If it were possible to give them more than 5 stars I would..

After being involved in a car accident. I look up a law firm in the area and found Dordulian Law Group. I am so grateful for their passion, dedication, and professionalism. Wendy and the rest of the staff keep me informed every step of my case and answer all my questions. I'm completely satisfied with my experience thus far. I was amazed how they manage to still work with me even though I had to move to a different state. They even found a new facility for me to continue my therapy. DLG Law is truly the best I've ever worked with. Thank you so much!

Initially the communication was a bit choppy due to some green talent in the office but that happens.. It's important in business allow the full process to play out & not get emotional to determine if a company is going to ultimately be responsible/professional or not! I can say I'M HAPPY I followed my instincts and waited til the department manager got back in town to handle my case and negotiations. They took care of me.This company seems to have some experienced upper management that understands how to work things out for the integrity of business and the betterment of their clients. I'm pleased with the most recent dealings with this company. Dordulian Law Group IS a company I would refer for personal injury or accident; they have experienced professionals that represent them.

This firm comes highly recommended from me. Regarding a potential premises liability lawsuit, I contacted the firm. I received a timely response. Rafi reviewed the documents I provided quickly but thoroughly. Rafi called me again when I had additional questions that I hadn't thought to ask, and he took the time to address each one. I am really happy with the quality of service they have provided.

I have a case that is close to being settled but unfortunately, my customer service representative no longer works there. I called the office to check on status, and the receptionist was very friendly and helpful in getting me in touch with my new case representative. And it only got better. Wendy is my new representative and she is the best! She took my information then, got back to me very quickly with an update on my case. I am so pleased with the level of service she has provided. Give that woman a raise!

ren Lowell

19:25 25 May 21

They made the entire process easy. I didn’t pay a thing. I only had to show up to my medical appointments and focus on getting better while they handled the paperwork. The insurance company wanted to offer me a settlement of 1400 for everything and Dordulian law was able to get them to cover my bills repairs and also give me more in the settlement. They are worth the call

Jon Cina

My significant other and I were driving home from an work party when were were rear-ended by a large semi-truck travelling at highway speed ( we were completely stopped). Through no fault our own, a pleasant party evening changed turned into a life changing event. We were both injured and transported to the emergency room for treatment. We both sustained serious neck, back, and limb injuries consistent with a crush of this type. Our car was completely destroyed.I'm pleased to say that my personal injury case was settled out of court after about seven months. My medical bills were completely covered. I netted a fair settlement and life moves on. Thank you for reading and good luck to your case.

It is horrible to be in a car accident. The physical and mental toll of recovering from an unexpected car accident is something I do not wish on anymore. If anyone finds themselves in a situation like me, I know that DLG law will take very good care of you like they took very good care of me.

My husband was in an accident on the heels of wrapping up the sub-standard process from an accident we were both involved in almost a year before; two accidents in one year after NEVER having been in one for our entire driving history. Needless to say, neither of us were looking forward to the process. We reached out to Dordulian Law Group and got the process started and am happy to report that things were wrapped up in a (for the most part) timely fashion. What is important to add here is that while an attorney is customarily the one who gets credit, I want to take this opportunity to give kudos to Rafi. for helping us through the last-minute phone calls and assuring us that everything was moving ahead as planned.

Arleen Smith

20:01 17 Oct 20

Rafi was so pleasant, courteous and concerned about our well being. He took all the information and said to hold on he would get the lawyer on the other line. We talked with him and he was just as nice. Rafi sent over the paperwork right away for us to sign and sent us her information to contact if we needed anything. Such a relief to have them in our corner. Couldn't believe how fast he got everything done. Anyone needing representation needs to give them a call and ask for Rafi, he will definitely treat you right! Thank you Rafi and Dordulian Law Firm.

I had the pleasure of working with Samuel Dordulian regarding litigation on a car accident case. Throughout the process he was extremely helpful in answering all of my questions and laying out my options. He was easy to get a hold of and answered all of my calls which I really appreciated during such a hectic time.

I needed a lawyer to help resolve an issue with my insurance. I contacted several lawyers. He responded within minutes after contacting him; answered my questions and was very responsive and helped resolve the issue within 24 hours. As many other reviewers have stated, he is very quick to respond, is frank and upfront with the issue at hand, takes immediate action to help resolve the issue in your best interest, and is reliable. I would definitely recommend Sam for any personal injury case, and I if I have any problems in the future (hopefully not), I will definitely be contacting Dordulian Law Group again.

After contacting several law firms, I was impressed with this firm. Rafi and S. Dordulian really listened and assisted me. Rafi kept the line of communication open as well as, giving excellent advice. He made you feel at ease and comfortable as a good friend would. There was sincere concern shown to the issues I was having. If I needed an attorney again, Sam would be my first call.

I spoke with Sam a few months ago in regards to a medical issue that my family had and he spent probably a good 45 minutes discussing all the options. Some of those options panned out and I am very grateful for his advice and insight. He is obviously a very caring guy and isn't in for the money. If you want someone you can trust I really believe he is the guy.

Sometimes workers comp cases can drag on. Samuel was there every step of the way with superior knowledge and intellect. What struck me was the kindness I found in him. He has always made sure my family and I were doing well. This kindness bridged the gap from the beginning of my case to the end and continues today.I'm convinced there isn't a workers compensation issue too big or small for he and his law group to handle. Because of Sam these past Holidays were the best I could have imagined. Thank you Dordulian Law Group.
