Frequently Asked Questions
What are the most common causes of motorcycle accidents?
Motorcycle crashes frequently involve another vehicle failing to see the rider, sudden lane changes, or a driver misjudging the motorcycle's speed or distance, especially at intersections.
Why do motorcycle crashes tend to cause more serious injuries than other crashes?
Riders have little protection around them, so the force of a collision is carried directly by their body, commonly resulting in broken bones or head injuries even at moderate speeds.
How do left-turning vehicles contribute to motorcycle collisions?
A driver turning left across traffic may not notice an oncoming motorcycle or may misjudge how fast it's approaching, a frequent factor in intersection crashes.
What can drivers do to be more aware of motorcycles on the road?
Checking mirrors and blind spots twice before turning or changing lanes, and allowing extra following distance, can help drivers spot motorcycles they might otherwise miss.
