Riding motorcycles is one of the most dangerous activities and fatality rates have been rising over the last ten (10) years. In fact, motorcyclists account for roughly twelve percent (12%) of all motor vehicle deaths. Just last year, 5000 riders were in fatal motorcycle accidents and, sadly, forty percent (40%) of those riders were not wearing helmets.
Proper motorcycle safety protocol is a crucial part of reducing accidents. Riding a motorcycle below thirty-five (35) miles per hour is one way to reduce the chances for accident. Helmet law regulations are also intended to reduce the chance of fatality and injury. In addition, wearing certain types of clothing - including leather armor as well as adhering to driver guidelines can help keep riders safe.
