The Risks of Riding a Motorcycle

Riding a motorcycle involves many dangers. Other motorists typically pay little attention to motorcyclists on the road, and in the event of a crash, a motorcyclist is far more likely to suffer catastrophic injuries, such as spinal cord injury or brain injury, than the occupants of a passenger vehicle. Because motorcycles offer no physical protection against impact, motorcyclists are completely exposed to the forces resulting from a collision.

Over the last ten-years, the number of motorcycle fatalities per year in the United States more than doubled from 2,227 to 4,553. Additionally, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, on average, over 87,000 motorcycle accident injuries are reported in the United States each year Moreover, according to the NHTSA, motorcyclists are 34 times more likely to die in a traffic crash than passenger vehicle occupants.

Motorcycle Accident Causes

Unfortunately, many drivers don't give motorcyclists the respect or attention that they deserve. Motorcyclists have all of the same road privileges as passenger vehicle operators, yet many drivers ignore their responsibility to give motorcyclists the respect and consideration that they give drivers of larger vehicles. As a result, motorcyclists face an increased risk of becoming involved in an accident. The most common motorcycle accident causes include:

• Motorists infringing upon a motorcyclist's lane while merging or changing lanes
• Motorists making a left turn in front of a motorcycle
• Motorists entering a street in front of a motorcycle from a parking lot, driveway, or intersection
• Motorists following a motorcyclist at an unsafe distance

As a motorcyclist, you should always ride defensively because inattentive and aggressive drivers are an ever-present threat to your safety. The best way to make yourself visible is to ride with your headlight on making yourself noticeable is one of the most effective ways to avoid some of the common causes of motorcycle accidents and ensure your safety.
