Motorcycles offer people an enjoyable hobby and escape on the open road, and recent years have seen a significant increase in motorcyclists on the road. Most motorcyclists know how to stay safe on the road, but the negligence of other vehicle operators poses the greatest threat to motorcyclists and these accidents can cause some of the most severe injuries. Research shows that the majority of motorcycle crashes are not the fault of the motorcyclist, but of other motorists. Being aware of other drivers is an imperative part of driving a motorcycle safely.
