Even the most cautious of riders is at significantly higher odds of sustaining injuries during a collision when compared to those inside a truck or car.
Fatal collisions are a threat encountered by motorcycle riders far more often than the occupants of any passenger vehicle. Taking into account the fact that riders have no physical protection between their body and other vehicles or the pavement, the injuries they sustain are often severe or even fatal.
