What Should Motorcyclists Know About Crash Risks?
Motorcyclists face greater exposure to injury because motorcycles provide less physical protection than passenger vehicles. A collision can result in serious harm even when the motorcycle is traveling at a relatively low speed.
Protective equipment such as helmets, jackets, gloves, and appropriate footwear can reduce some injuries. Visibility is also important, particularly at intersections where vehicles and motorcycles travel across or alongside each other’s paths.
Road conditions, traffic signals, vehicle positioning, and driver awareness can all affect motorcycle safety. Evidence such as photographs, vehicle damage, witness accounts, and roadway markings may help establish what happened after a motorcycle accident.
