Motorcyclists face a significantly higher risk of being involved in traffic accidents, with a 28 times higher chance of experiencing a wrongful death compared to passengers in cars. Despite motorcycles only making up 3 percent of registered vehicles and traveling only 0.6 percent of all miles in the US, motorcyclists accounted for 14 percent of overall traffic fatalities, 17 percent of occupant fatalities, and 4 percent of injured occupants in 2015.
2 percent of all traffic fatalities in a given year were due to bicycle wrongful deaths, and another 2 percent of individuals injured in auto accidents were cyclists. In 2002 alone, there were 662 reported cyclist fatalities and an additional 48,000 injuries in bicycle accidents. Notably, cyclists accounted for 12 percent of all non-motorist traffic deaths that year. According to the National Center for Statistics and Analysis, over 47,000 cyclists have lost their lives in auto accidents since 1932.
Due to the immense size and weight of a city bus, any collision involving a bus and a smaller vehicle, or a pedestrian, often results in severe injuries or fatalities. These catastrophic accidents typically lead to extended periods of hospitalization, rehabilitation, and a lifelong struggle with disabilities and impairments.
