Is there data to support such claims?
Data
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), between 2005 and 2012 motorcycle registrations
have increased 36% nationwide while motorcycle fatalities per 100,000 registered motorcycles have decreased 20%.
NHTSA's own data shows that during that same period motorcycle vehicle miles traveled increased 104% while motorcycle
fatalities per 100 million vehicle miles traveled decreased 47%.

Between 2005 and 2012 there has been an increased emphasis on motorcycle training and education.
Forty-Seven states currently have state legislated motorcycle training programs in place; the other three have private training
facilities.
• Rider education and training focuses on avoiding a crash rather than merely surviving one. Regardless of the effectiveness of
any piece of gear, there is no such thing as a safe crash. The only safe crash is the one that does not occur. That is the goal of
training and education, to keep the crashes from occurring in the first place.View entire presentation
