The operator of a motorcycle may recover against the driver or owner of the other vehicle if the other driver was at fault in causing the accident. The manufacturer of the vehicle may also be responsible if a defect in the motorcycle contributed to the accident. A public entity may even be liable if the design or maintenance of the roadway was unsafe and played a part in the accident. If a passenger on a motorcycle is injured, the motorcycle operator may also be liable.
