I was injured in a Florida motorcycle accident, but I wasn’t wearing a helmet. Can I still recover damages from the other driver?
Video Transcription:
Yes, even if you were not wearing a helmet, if you were in injured in an accident that was not your fault, you can still bring a claim against the at fault party. Florida operates under a comparative negligence system so the fact that you did not wear a helmet may contribute into reducing the amount of your compensation but it will not preclude you or bar you from bringing a claim.
