Motorcycle Safety: Look Twice, Save a Life! Motorcycle fatalities have increased throughout Ohio and the Nation in recent years. With the cost of fuel continuing to increase, so has the number of motorcyclists on our roadways, and the number of motorcycle-related crashes and fatalities.
According to National Highway Traffic Administration, in 2005 there were 4,553 motorcycle rider fatalities, of which 2,532 (56%) were from multivehicle motorcycle crashes. Crashes in Lorain County support research showing that "More than half of all multi-vehicle motorcycle crashes are caused by other vehicles violating the right-of-way of a motorcyclist," says Sean Maher, American Motorcyclist Association director of state affairs. Due to these statistics and many others, Lorain County Safe Community Coalition reminds motorists to Look Twice, Save a Life! Organizations interested in increasing motorcycle safety awareness may borrow the Coalition's Look Twice, Save a Life display. To reserve the display e-mail, scc@loraincountysafecommunity.com |
