Collisions Between California’s Cars and Motorcycles

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported that fatal motorcycle accidents have increased alarmingly over the past twenty years. For example, in 1994, 2,300 people in the United States were killed in motorcycle accidents; by 2017, that number had risen to 5,172.
