Motorcycle Accidents in Nevada
It is a truly exhilarating experience to hit the road on the back of a motorcycle. Unfortunately, it is far from safe. Compared to other vehicle types, motorcycle accidents are much more likely to end in life-changing or fatal injuries. Statistics show that riders are almost 28 times more likely to be killed in a collision, while the risk of injury is four times higher. Despite accounting for only 3 percent of all registered cars in the United States, motorcycles are responsible for 14 percent of all traffic deaths. Motorcycle deaths rose from 5,044 to 5,579, a nearly 11 percent increase. It can be difficult to achieve a full recovery on your own after a serious accident.
