Frequently Asked Questions
Does road surface condition affect motorcycle safety?
Yes. Loose gravel, wet pavement, potholes, and uneven lane markings give a motorcycle far less margin than a car, since a rider depends on two narrow contact patches for balance and traction.
What gear helps reduce injury in a motorcycle crash?
A DOT-approved helmet, a riding jacket and pants with abrasion-resistant material, gloves, and over-the-ankle boots are commonly cited as reducing the severity of injuries in a crash.
What usually causes motorcycle crashes involving another vehicle?
Drivers failing to see or yield to a motorcycle at intersections or during lane changes is a frequent factor, along with following distance and visibility issues.
Why do motorcycle crashes tend to cause more serious injuries than car crashes?
Riders have no frame, airbags, or seatbelt to absorb impact, so even a lower-speed collision can throw a rider from the bike and onto the pavement or another vehicle.
