Motorcycle Insurance And Safety Myths Corrected

Motorcycle Study

Motorcycle riders often get an unjustified reputation as being reckless, risk takers, and that they generally disobey traffic laws. This perception is unfounded and there are many statistics that back up the fact that most motorcycle accidents are not the fault of the motorcycle rider, but that of another driver.

A recent study conducted by the University of Southern California (USC) found that approximately three-fourths of motorcycle accidents involved a collision with another vehicle. The study also found that the driver of the other vehicle violated the motorcyclist’s right-of-way, thus causing the accident. These findings confirm that motorcycle riders have unjustly received a bad reputation from the general public.  Motorcycles are inherently prone to accidents caused by other drivers because of their small size. Motorcycles easily fit into the blind spot of typical passenger automobiles. The truth is that most motorcycle riders are very good drivers and keep an eye out for motorists who do not see them.
