Motorcycle Insurance: Motorcycle Safety and Ensuring You Are Properly Covered
At Leicht Insurance, we understand how important it is for Indiana riders to prioritize safety and secure the right insurance coverage. Whether you’re a seasoned enthusiast or new to the road, taking steps to protect yourself and your bike is essential.
Motorcycle Safety: Protecting Yourself on the Road
Staying safe starts before you even turn the key. Here are some key safety practices every Indiana rider should follow:
- Wear proper gear: Always wear a DOT-approved helmet, sturdy gloves, boots and protective clothing to reduce injury in case of an accident.
- Stay visible: Use reflective gear and keep your headlights on, even during the day, to help other drivers see you.
- Follow traffic laws: Obey speed limits, use turn signals and avoid weaving between vehicles.
- Take a safety course: Completing a motorcycle safety course can improve your skills and may even qualify you for insurance discounts.
- Inspect your bike: Regularly check your tires, brakes, lights and fluid levels.
Ensuring You Are Properly Covered
Our team helps riders understand their options, including:
- Liability coverage: Required by Indiana law, this helps pay for injuries or damages you cause to others.
- Collision coverage: May help cover repairs to your motorcycle after an accident, regardless of fault.
- Comprehensive coverage: May help cover theft, vandalism, weather damage and other non-collision incidents.
- Uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage: May help provide coverage if you’re involved in an accident with a driver who lacks adequate insurance.
