To be fair you have probably known many more people who own automobiles.
"The chances of a fatality in a motorcycle accident are approximately 30 times higher than in a car.
Motorcycles have a staggering 80% injury or death rate, while car accidents remain around 20%."
"According to J.D. Power, the chance of a fatality in a motorcycle accident is 30 times higher than
in a car. The National Safety Council says the odds of a motorcyclist dying in accidents is 1 in 747."
I do know on average an automobile driver has much less respect on the road
for a motorcyclist than another car. I have lost a few friends in that manner.
