I love watching motorcycle stunts (note that I didn’t say I love doing motorcycle stunts). I leave that to the professionals who actually perform stunts for a living. Below is a great video of a motorbike stunt rider. To prevent personal injury and a motorcycle accident, do not attempt to perform any of the actions performed in this video.

Thanksgiving is one of the Uricchio Law Firm team’s favorite times of year, when we can gather with close family and friends and share our thanks for all of the wonderful things we have in our lives. And we’re extremely thankful to celebrate such a superb day in the Lowcountry, where the autumn weather is gorgeous and perfect for some outdoor fun!

Here at Uricchio Law Firm, we’re extremely thankful for our friends, loved ones, and delightful clients and are so joyous to have you all in our lives. Thank you and we hope everyone has a safe and happy Thanksgiving!

Some tips to keep in mind for a safe—and therefore happy—Thanksgiving:

  • Be responsible about drinking if you’re going to get into a vehicle.
  • Keep an eye on the stove and the oven while cooking to prevent house fires.
  • For those who are frying the turkey (a favorite in the Lowcountry), take proper precautions to ensure that you cook the turkey properly by researching, paying attention, and following trusted recipe directions.

What are you thankful for this Thanksgiving?

On November 11, 1918, fighting in World War I ended when an armistice was established between Germany and allied nations. Since this day signified the end of the war, we now honor our veterans on November 11 every year and praise them for their courage and devotion.

At Uricchio Law Firm, we would like to thank all of our veterans who have fought for this great nation and we honor them for their immense bravery.

This is my fourth blog post in a series dedicated to reviewing the South Carolina motorcycle laws pertaining to the rights and duties of bikers.

SECTION 56-5-3660. Helmets shall be worn by operators and passengers under age twenty-one; helmet design; list of approved helmets.

It shall be unlawful for any person under the age of twenty-one to operate or ride upon a two-wheeled motorized vehicle unless he wears a protective helmet of a type approved by the Department of Public Safety. Such a helmet must be equipped with either a neck or chin strap and be reflectorized on both sides thereof. The department is hereby authorized to adopt and amend regulations covering the types of helmets and the specifications therefor and to establish and maintain a list of approved helmets which meet the specifications as established hereunder.

If you are under 21 and are riding a motorcycle as either an operator or passenger- helmets are required!

SECTION 56-5-3670. Goggles or face shields shall be worn by operators under age twenty-one; list of approved goggles and face shields.

It shall be unlawful for any person under the age of twenty-one to operate a two-wheeled motorized vehicle unless he wears goggles or a face shield of a type approved by the Department of Public Safety. The department is hereby authorized to adopt and amend regulations covering types of goggles and face shields and the specifications therefor and to establish and maintain a list of approved goggles and face shields which meet the specifications as established hereunder.

SECTION 56-5-3680. Wind screens.

The provisions of Section 56-5-3670 with respect to goggles and face shields shall not apply to the operator of a two-wheeled motorized vehicle equipped with a wind screen meeting specifications established by the Department of Public Safety. The department is hereby authorized to adopt and amend regulations covering types of wind screens and specifications therefor.

If you are under 21 and operating a motorcycle, you must wear goggles or a face shield unless your bike has a wind screen. However, if you are only a passenger, it appears this law does not apply.
