It is an incontrovertible fact that motorcyclists are more vulnerable to all kinds of injuries than the drivers of cars and other road-going vehicles – from the relatively minor scrape or bruise to the more serious head or spinal injury. The reasons for this are various: from riders' exposure to the impact of collisions and road surfaces to the stability of the motorcycle itself or the difficulty other road users have in identifying motorbikes, particularly when at junctions and during overtaking.
Although all of the above helps to explain why riders account for a disproportionate amount of RTA injuries, it does not mean those whose negligent actions cause motorcyclists to sustain injury are immune form blame.
