Motorcycle Accidents claims in High Point

A loaded tractor-trailer pushes a wall of air. Riding beside one on US-311 or I-74, a rider feels the wake as the truck passes and again as it pulls back in. That shove is a real thing. If it moved you out of your line and something happened, the carrier will argue that a competent rider holds his lane in wind, and here an argument like that only has to land once. Once is the whole claim. Note the trailer type and whether it was running empty or loaded. An empty box moves air differently than a loaded flatbed does. The company name and the trailer number are what an attorney works from.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I get a crash report in High Point?

The High Point Police Department writes reports for crashes inside the city. On I-74 and US-311 the NC State Highway Patrol is frequently the responding agency, and elsewhere in the county it may be the Guilford County Sheriff's Office. The NC Division of Motor Vehicles also takes crash-report requests statewide. If you aren't sure who responded, the report number from the scene is the fastest way to find out.

Which court would handle my injury case in High Point?

High Point is in Guilford County, which holds court in both High Point and Greensboro, so a filed suit goes through the Guilford County courts. North Carolina separates civil cases into District Court and Superior Court depending on the amount claimed, and that depends on the claim rather than the city. Most claims settle without a filing. The deadline if yours is filed is 3 years.

A delivery truck hit me on US-311. Is that claim handled differently?

The law is the same, but the other side is not one person with a personal policy. A commercial carrier usually has a claims process that starts the same day, its own account of what happened, and a strong reason to find some share of fault on you, since 1% is enough to end your claim in North Carolina. Keep your own photos and the report number.

How long do I have to file an injury claim in North Carolina?

In North Carolina, the deadline is generally 3 years from the date of the accident. 3 years personal injury; wrongful death 2 years. Deadlines are strict — the sooner you act, the more options you have.
