Motorcycle Dangers




Many consider riding a motorcycle as one of life’s great pleasures. According to National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, in 2015, almost 5,000 motorcyclists were killed. This is up 8.3 percent from 2014. The latest vehicle mile travel data show motorcyclists are about 27 times as likely as passenger car occupants to die in a motor vehicle traffic crash and 6 times as likely to be injured.
The scary statistics of motorcyclists prove that they need their rights protected after an accident.
There are many problems while driving that lead to more motorcycle accidents.
The design or manufacture defect could have a hand in injuring a motorcyclist. If the motorcycle had a design defect, the company planned,or designed the vehicle in such a way that an injury could foreseeable result. A manufacturing defect, on the other hand, means that there was some deviation from the intended design while the motorcycle was being assembled, and this deviation rendered the motorcycle dangerous in some way.
