Fatal Motorcycle Crash Statistics

Motorcycle riders are more likely to be injured or killed because they lack safety equipment like seatbelts and airbags that automobile passengers have.

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates that motorcycles are 16 times more likely to be injured and 35 times more likely to be killed than passenger vehicles. Figures like these tend to be higher among novice bikers. Motorcycle accidents claim the lives of hundreds of people each year while injuring tens of thousands more.

Motorcycle collisions can cause serious injuries or even death. In 2016, there were 5,286 fatal motorcycle accidents in the United States, according to data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Helmets can help prevent major head injuries. Helmets were found to be 37% effective in reducing motorcycle fatalities. The remainder of their bodies, however, may still be vulnerable.

Motorcycle accidents are frequently caused by distracted driving, speeding, drunk driving, reckless driving, bad weather, wrong-way driving, and failure to obey traffic laws.
