Hit on a motorcycle by a driver who didn't yield? A driver who pulls into a rider's path is often found at fault, so their liability insurance usually pays first. If it's missing or too small, your uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage can help, and MedPay can help with medical bills. In Virginia, a rider found even slightly at fault may recover nothing.
