Frequently Asked Questions
How do left-turning vehicles cause motorcycle crashes?
A common pattern involves a car turning left across a lane of traffic and failing to see an oncoming motorcycle, misjudging its speed or distance. These crashes frequently happen at intersections or busy entrances like shopping center access points.
What can drivers do to spot motorcycles more easily?
Checking mirrors and blind spots twice, allowing extra time before turning or merging, and treating motorcycles with the same caution as any other vehicle can help drivers notice riders sooner.
Are motorcycle crashes more common at intersections?
Yes, intersections and entrances to parking areas see a high number of motorcycle collisions because of turning vehicles, limited visibility and sudden stops.
