Motorcycle Accidents
Compared to other vehicle accidents, motorcycle accidents can be extremely dangerous because motorcyclists do not have the external protection around them associated with normal vehicles. The motorcyclist's body absorbs much of the impact which can lead to serious long-lasting effects or even death.
If you are in a motorcycle accident, even if you do not see injuries, it is wise to visit a hospital or physician to ensure there are no internal injuries or bleeding.
Motorcycle accident statistics:
- Nationally, motorcyclist deaths are 30 times more likely to happen than deaths of other types of motor vehicle drivers.
- According to the NHTSA, the majority of fatal motorcycle accidents happen to people age 40 and over.
- Speed is the major factor in motorcycle accidents when riders are under age 30.
