[ Ссылка ]. Motorcycle accidents are only 1.1 percent of all crashes, according to the federal Department of Transportation. But the department's statistics show that riders are disproportionately likely to be involved in fatal accidents. In 2007, motorcyclists were 37 times more likely to die in an accident than drivers and nine times more likely to be injured. Traffic safety experts blame this on motorcyclists' lack of protection as well as the trouble some drivers have with seeing them. This is known as the conspicuity issue. An experienced personal injury attorney knows how to handle these problems.
