shrubbery, etc. 70% of motorcycle accidents occur at intersections.
Invisibility of motorcyclists - The motorcyclist is undetected by other
drivers. Truck drivers are at even more risk of missing a motorcyclist drivers
of these huge vehicles often hit blind spots and do not see the comparatively
small motorcycle, which can result in collision.
Motorcycle defects - Fuel system leaks, which present an increased risk
of fire in the post-crash phase.
Weather - Heavy rain, snow, hail, etc. can lead to decreased visibility
