Motorcycles
Statistics on motorcycle accidents indicate that each year more than 2,200 people are killed and more than 55,000 are injured in motorcycle accidents. While many of these deaths and injuries could have been prevented with the proper use of a quality helmet, some are due to defective and dangerous motorcycle design. Many motorcycles are inherently dangerous, yet some manufacturers fail to properly warn motorcycle purchasers of such dangers. Additionally, some manufacturers fail to offer proper instruction and safety training. As a result, a motorcyclist is 16 times more likely to die in a crash than an automobile driver.
