The decision to operate a motorcycle comes with the assumption of greater risk. Motorcycles are lightweight and can be exhilarating with their high speeds and quick acceleration. It is factors such as these that can put a rider at high risk for a potential accident. Even with that in mind, motorcycle accidents are more likely to be the result of another driver’s negligence.
