Injured in a Motorcycle Accident in Utah?

No. UT Legal Help is a legal advertising website. It is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. Your inquiry may be shared with a participating Utah law firm for review.

Requesting a case review through this website is free. A participating law firm will explain any fees during your consultation.

Utah generally allows four years from the date of injury for most personal injury lawsuits — longer than many states — though wrongful death is two years and claims involving a government entity require a written notice of claim within one year. This is general information, not legal advice. A participating law firm can explain the deadlines that apply to you.

Yes, within limits — since May 2019, Utah allows motorcycles to filter past stopped traffic on roads posted 45 mph or less, at 15 mph or less, where there are two or more lanes in the same direction and the adjacent vehicles are stopped. It's not allowed on freeways, and lane splitting through moving traffic remains illegal. Fault still depends on the full circumstances, and a participating law firm can review what happened.
