Motorcycle Accident Statistics

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, in 2007 there were more than 5,150 fatalities from U.S. motorcycle accidents in 2007 (a 7% increase over 2006). There were also 103,000 injuries. In Michigan, 120 motorcyclists were killed in 2007.

However, statistics also show that helmets have saved the lives of nearly 1,800 motorcyclists in 2007. In fact, motorcycle helmets are estimated to be 37 percent effective in preventing fatal injuries. NHTSA estimates that helmets saved 1,784 motorcyclists' lives in 2007, and that 800 more could have been saved if all motorcyclists had worn helmets.
