Every day across Kentucky, motorcycle accidents shatter lives in an instant. With thousands of crashes reported each year and hundreds of motorcyclists injured or killed on our roads, the danger is all too real. Unlike drivers in enclosed vehicles, riders face direct exposure to the road and other vehicles, meaning even a minor collision can have devastating consequences.
Nationwide, motorcyclists are more than 25 times more likely to die in a crash than passengers in cars. In Kentucky, this risk is magnified by winding rural roads, high-speed interstates, and drivers who fail to look twice before turning or merging. The vast majority of these wrecks are caused by preventable driver error, whether it’s distracted driving, failure to yield, or speeding.
For injured riders, the aftermath of a crash can be overwhelming. Broken bones, spinal injuries, and traumatic brain injuries are common and often require extensive medical treatment, long-term therapy, and time away from work. At the same time, victims are left dealing with insurance companies, mounting medical bills, and a disrupted way of life.
