Actually not true the top five reasons for motorcycle deaths...
Five crash types account for 85% of fatal motorcycle crashes:
1) motorcycle runs-off-road 41%,
2) motorcycle or other vehicle runs traffic control 18%,
3) head-on collision 11%,
4) car turns in front of cycle 8%
5) motorcycle goes down in roadway 7%.
By my math that means even if #2 and #3 are 100% an autombiles fault (which in all likelyhood it is 50/50) it is still 48% motorcyclist and 37% auto...
Also don't remember were I read it but a motorcyclist is 26 times as likely to die as someone driving a car!
So be safe!!!!
