I am trying to get my mom convinced that I will be a much safer driver on a motorcycle than a car. I have been doing research and teens get into more accidents in cars than on bikes by percentages. The reason for it is because the teens on motorcycles get there senses heightened and teens in cars get careless. The teens in cars also can get distracted by the radio and stop paying attention to the road and cyclists have nothing else to do but look around them at the cars they are passing/being passed by. What is your opinion, 18- get in more accidents on bikes than cars. also want opinion: would you agree with me that I should get a motorcycle as well as a truck so the bike isnt my main means of transportation?
Now look up the death toll and severity of injuries in percentage of matorcycle accidents to car accidents.
Cars are the way to go for safety. From the source, ?Motorcycles are the most dangerous type of motor vehicle to drive. These vehicles are involved in fatal crashes at a rate of 35.0 per 100 million miles of travel, compared with a rate of 1.7 per 100 million miles of travel for passenger cars. ?Motorcyclists were 35 times more likely than passenger car occupants to die in a crash in 2006, per vehicle mile traveled, and 8 times more likely to be injured. ?Although motorcycles account for only 2% of vehicles on the road, they make up more than 10% of all crashes. Percentage-wise, you are 3500% more likely to die on a motorcycle. I lost a friend two years ago in a motorcycle accident - a passing car came back over too soon and knocked his front wheel out from under him, sending Ben head-first into rocks. In a car he would only have been bruised a bit.
Get into an accident with a car and chances you will not be hurt. Get into an accident with a motorcycle you WILL get hurt. Motorcycles are more dangerous than a car. Period. Take a turn just a bit too fast and down you go. Brake too hard with the front brake and down you go. Drivers don't see you. Gear needs to be worn all the time. Price insurance to help answer your question.
