Motorcycle and Bicycle Collisions in Kansas
Accidents between motorcycles and bicycles are less common than vehicle-to-vehicle collisions, but they often result in severe injuries due to the lack of protection for both riders. The crash Monday evening at E Lincoln St and S Washington St underscores the vulnerability of non-enclosed road users in Wichita.
Intersections in urban areas are particularly risky zones, where visibility challenges, right-of-way disputes, and sudden turns can increase the chance of a serious collision. In crashes involving two unprotected riders—such as motorcyclists and bicyclists—the likelihood of head trauma, fractures, and other critical injuries is significant.
In Wichita, city officials continue to work on improving traffic safety for both motorized and non-motorized road users, but awareness among drivers and riders remains vital. For motorcyclists and bicyclists alike, wearing proper safety gear, obeying traffic controls, and exercising extra caution at intersections can make a meaningful difference.
