Because motorcyclists have minimal protection against cars, trucks, cement barriers, and other hazards, motorcycle accidents can result in catastrophic injuries requiring extensive medical treatment and significant time away from work. Injuries from motorcycle accidents can include brain injuries, broken bones, concussions, internal bleeding, paralysis, and other injuries. Some motorcycle accidents can be fatal, especially if the accident victim is not wearing a helmet.
According to 2002-2005 statistics from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, only 17% of motorcyclists who were involved in an accident sustained no injuries. Four percent of motorcyclists died within 30 thirty days of being involved in a motorcycle accident. Fourteen percent were hospitalized and 26% were treated for injuries. These statistics underscore the seriousness of motorcycle accidents.
