California Motorcycle Accidents Facts

California freeways are especially dangerous for motorcycle riders. Autos, trucks, buses, limousines and other large vehicles with blind spots are well known for squashing bikers like bugs. Novice motorcyclists are especially vulnerable to vehicles with blind spots and other hazards particular to riders, like debris and trash flying around the highways. In 1966, congress enacted the Highway Safety and National Traffic and Motor Vehicle and Safety Act. Since that time, it is estimated that approximately 128,000 motorcyclists died in motorcycle accidents. Motorcyclists have a 32 times greater chance of getting killed in a car crash, when compared to passenger vehicle occupants. In fact, motorcyclists have a 6 times greater chance to be seriously injured in vehicle roadway crash.

Overview of Motorcycle Statistics

The statistics from 2004 show that motorcycles hitting fixed objects have a twenty six (26%) percent chance of a fatal collision. Cars only has an eighteen (18%) percent chance of fixed object collision fatality. In that same years, there were almost 2000 two (2) vehicle accidents that included a motorcycle that resulted in a fatality. In at least thirty nine (39%) percent of those collisions, the biker was riding straight, attempting to pass the injury causing automobile, or coming up on the car, when the car was making a left hand turn. Automobile operators are a major cause of injury and death to motorcyclists.

Causes of motorcycle accidents include:

* Negligence of Car Operators

* Car Drivers talking on Cell Phones

* DUI

* Potholes and other dangers on the road

Since 2004, over 4000 motorcycle riders were fatally injured, and at least 76,000 motorcycle riders were injured in motorcycle crashes in the U.S. It appears these statistics are increasing yearly.
