Motorcycle Accidents In California

In one year, 5,172 motorcycle riders and passengers died in accidents. Deaths have more than doubled in number. Some stats:

• Motorcycles are 3% of all registered vehicles and a mere .6% of all vehicle miles
• Motorcyclists were 14% of all traffic fatalities
• 28% of riders who died in a motorcycle crash were under the influence
• 91% of riders who died in a crash were male

When motorcycles and other vehicles hit, it is usually because the other driver has violated the motorcyclist’s right of way. Why does this occur?

• Motorcycles are small vehicles and drivers don’t see them
• Drivers are not able to anticipate motorcycles’ movements
• The view of where the motorcyclist is in relation to the car is obstructed, via the vehicle’s blind spots or other cars on the road
• The driver is on their cell phone or otherwise distracted
