Motorcycle accidents occur for many reason, most of which involve collision with another vehicle. Often, the other vehicle is violating the bikers right-of-way. Unfortunately, the likelihood of injury is sustained by the rider, that being 98% of multiple vehicle collisions and 96% of single vehicle accidents.
