Riding a motorcycle can be a great deal of fun, but it also can involve accidents or collisions. These can be due to operator inexperience or negligence, but many times it is caused by the negligence of another driver. Over 75 percent of Washington motorcycle crashes involve collisions with other vehicles. Because of this, motorcycle riders have to be especially diligent in taking safety precautions in order to avoid serious and life-threatening accidents.
Injuries common to motorcycle accidents are broken bones, road rash, scrapes and burns from the roadway, head or spinal column injuries, and brain injuries. Because there is little to no protection for riders, these injuries can be severe. About 2,000 people are killed in motorcycle accidents every year
in the US.
