Motorcycle Accident Statistics – Venedy Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

Motorcycles are small, fast-moving vehicles. They aren’t as protective and trucks and cars and that’s because they aren’t meant to be. Because of this motorcycle accidents are far more likely to result in serious injuries or fatalities. This is a list of why accident involving motorcycles can be so traumatic:

  • The light weight of motorcycles and scooters, as compared to other passenger vehicles or even commercial trucks on the road.
  • A lack of serious and life-saving protective elements.
  • The lack of safety equipment that can come into action in the event of a scooter or motorcycle accident (Such equipment, for example, includes seat belts and air bags, both of which are standard in passenger vehicles but not part of motorcycle or scooter equipment.) 
  • Lack of Helmets. 71% of Motorcycle Accident Fatalities in the State of Illinois happened because of a lack of a helmet.
