Main Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

1) Adverse weather conditions
2) Poor road surface
3) Object/s in the road
4) Faulty equipment, e.g. mechanical problem with the motorcycle.

Accidents are more likely to occur at roundabouts, junctions and crosswords where traffic is approaching from different directions. They also occur on hills or switchbacks in the road where it is difficult to spot other traffic.

Accidents occur in towns and the countryside and for very different reasons. But there are factors which are common to all types of terrain such as riding at an excessive speed, dangerous or reckless riding and lack of control.

Motorcycle accidents usually involve the rider being thrown off their bike or becoming trapped underneath another vehicle. If a rider is thrown off their bike onto a hard road surface or another vehicle then this usually results in a serious injury.
