"The Five Mistakes That Can Wreck Your Florida Accident Case is a must read for anyone that has been injured in a accident in Florida!"

My case was handled courteously and professionally. All of my questions were answered promptly and I never felt anything I was concerned about was un-important. Judi always had answers and took the time to explain. She was always on top of my case when I called the office.

I really appreciated the fact that Mr. Dodson hired a professional expert to measure and make an evaluation about the place where I fell. The whole process was handled very well. Both Judi and Mr. Dodson were very nice and my experience working with them was professional.

I would recommend Jim Dodson to anyone I knew who was in need of a personal injury attorney. 


"I recommend the Law Office of James Dodson.  They were always able and available when I had questions.  They even got me more than I expected right when I needed it most.  I am exceedingly grateful to have had this wonderful group of people helping and getting what we deserve."

Motorcycle Risky Riding Behavior | Canadian Poll | Florida Motorcycle Accident Attorney | Clearwater

A  poll by the Canadian National Traffic Research Foundation suggests many folks believe Canadian motorcyclists are not behaving more or less risky on the roads than other drivers. The public seems less concerned about unsafe motorcycle riders than other road safety issues.

Researchers and interest groups, however,  say concern is still warranted!

Here's a rundown on the findings of the report:

* The motorcyclist fatality rate in Canada has increased every year.

* Only 3.1% of Canadian motorcyclists report riding without a helmet.

*  When involved in a crash, a motorcyclist without a helmet is 40% more likely to suffer a fatal head injury and 15% more  likely to suffer a non-fatal injury. (Clearwater Florida Motorcycle Accident attorney website for all you need to know about motorcycle helmets)

*  Survey data suggests Canadians believe improvement is needed in decreasing the number of riders who engage in
risky riding behaviors (weaving in and out of traffic; passing other vehicles when it is not safe; performing stunts on public roads; and riding well above the speed limit.)

Both Canadian drivers and motorcyclists agreed on various measures to discourage risky driving behaviors including:
impounding motorcycles for performing stunts on public roads; increased fines for the non-use of helmets for motorcyclists
and an engine size limitation for new motorcycle.  

Enjoy the ride but ride safely!
