As the hum of electric motors joins the city soundtrack from the Lakefront Trail to Milwaukee Avenue, e-bikes are rapidly reshaping how Chicagoans commute, cruise, and explore. But with this mobility boom comes a growing concern: more riders, more speed, and more collisions on busy streets make the question of risk impossible to ignore. According […]
Pain doesn’t always leave a cast, scar, or X-ray behind. Yet the invisible aftermath of an accident — the daily struggle to sleep, work, drive, or simply enjoy life — can change everything. When someone else’s negligence turns your world upside down, documenting those impacts becomes more than paperwork. It becomes your proof. Every year, […]

No license plate, no apology, no one taking responsibility. That’s the reality of a hit-and-run motorcycle accident. Beyond the injuries, victims face a maze of legal […]
Traffic doesn’t move the same way when you’re on two wheels. Riders see gaps where cars see gridlock. That’s the mindset behind motorcycle lane splitting — riding between lanes of slower or stopped vehicles.
