Summer 2026 Oklahoma Motorcycle Accidents: Serious motorcycle accident injuries and fatalities dramatically increase here in Oklahoma during the Summer Months of June, July and August partly because of "summer vacation" car and truck drivers who may be completely unfamiliar with our roads and highways, drive at excessive speeds, or who are sleepy, distracted, or don't know how to drive during some of our bad summer weather.
All Motorcycle Accident injury cases are complex, and require an EXPERIENCED Oklahoma Motorcycle Accident Injury Attorney. If you've been injured in a 2026 Summer Season Motorcycle Accident in Oklahoma City, Tulsa or anywhere in Oklahoma, please contact Self & Associates immediately.
Oklahoma Motorcycle riders have a right to travel freely and in safety on the roads of Oklahoma, but unfortunately far too many of them suffer serious accident injuries that are NOT their fault.
The smaller size of a motorcycle makes them much more difficult to see for car and truck drivers who may be speeding or distracted by their devices.
There is a strict Oklahoma Motorcycle Accident Statute of Limitations relating to any Motorcycle Accident Injury, that limits the amount of time you have to file a legal claim.

Watch Our Brief Oklahoma Motorcycle Accident Lawyer Video: "Pain and Suffering - An Important Part of Many Motorcycle Accident Injury Lawsuits"
There are over 7.1 million motorcycles on the road, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation. With that many people enjoying the open road on motorcycles, car and truck drivers have no excuse not to expect to encounter them and have a duty to be cautious to respect their rights.
Even with the best rider protective gear, because motorcycles do not provide their riders the physical protection that other vehicles do, often serious injuries result when collisions occur. Road hazards such as objects in the road or potholes are much more dangerous for motorcycles than for other vehicles.
Injured While Riding for Work?
If you were injured in a motorcycle accident while working, your case may involve more than just a typical accident claim. Many Oklahoma riders use motorcycles for job-related tasks such as deliveries, running errands, or traveling between job sites.
When an accident happens during the course of employment, you may have a workers’ compensation claim in addition to a possible claim against the at-fault driver. These situations can involve multiple sources of compensation depending on the facts of the case.
Oklahoma Motorcycle Accident Injury? Drivers Often Fail to See Riders
June 2026
Many Oklahoma motorcycle accidents happen when drivers fail to see riders, especially at intersections, during left turns, or when changing lanes.
Motorcycle riders are more exposed than drivers in cars or trucks, so even a lower-speed crash can cause serious injuries. Accidents involving motorcycles often result in long recoveries, expensive medical care, and lasting physical limitations.
Serious motorcycle accident injuries may include:
Head injuries and concussions
Broken bones and fractures
Road rash and soft tissue injuries
Spinal and neck injuries
Long-term or permanent injuries
When a driver fails to yield, turns left in front of a motorcycle, or changes lanes without checking for riders, the injured motorcyclist may have legal rights to pursue compensation.
Self & Associates has been helping Oklahoma motorcycle accident injury victims for over 40 years.
Motorcycle accident injuries can severely impact the quality and enjoyment of your life.
The pain and inability to function normally can keep you not only from the things you need to do but also the things you enjoy and want to do. Medical bills, lost wages and other expenses can quickly add up.
You may not be able to work for a long time and financial troubles can develop. Doctors appointments and treatment can take months. The insurance adjusters can try to take advantage of the situation with early pressure to settle for much less than you deserve or may deny your claim totally.
Driving a motorcycle takes more physical ability and skill. High speed "wobbling" accidents can occur when the front or rear wheels are out of alignment due to improper repairs or due to manufacturing defects which can be the responsibility of the motorcycle dealers or manufacturers. Defective brakes can also be a dealer or manufacturing problem.
WHAT TO DO

Motorcycle Accident Injury Law Library Entry for Friday June 05, 2026
Common Motorcycle Accident Injuries
Due to riders’ lack of protection, motorcycle accidents have a higher risk for resulting in severe injuries or death than traffic accidents involving passenger vehicles.
In addition to their general vulnerability, motorcyclists often do not see the approach of other vehicles that lead to motorcycle accidents. Most motorcycle accidents are caused by the failure of another driver to notice a motorcycle, which can catch the rider unaware and unable to prepare for impact.
Riders are often ejected in motorcycle accidents, and these collisions can result in multiple, severe injuries to motorcyclists. In addition to cuts and lacerations, motorcycle accidents frequently result in severe injuries including:
Traumatic brain injuries
Spinal cord injuries
Broken or fractured bones
Paralysis
Loss of limb
A number of studies, including those by insurance agencies and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), indicate that more than 75 percent of accidents involving motorcycles cause serious injury or death to the motorcycle operator. According to an NHTSA study, motorcyclists have a fatality rate approximately 20 times higher than those in passenger vehicles.
If you were injured or a family member suffered wrongful death in a motorcycle accident caused by the negligence of another driver, it’s important to contact a personal injury attorney well-versed in motorcycle accidents as soon as possible.
