Welcome to our September newsletter, spotlighting the importance of enhancing motorcycle safety in the EU.
Motorcycling is not just an efficient and cost-effective means of transportation but also a popular leisure activity for many riders. However, motorcyclists are among the most vulnerable road users and face significant risks. Despite making up only a small percentage of vehicles on the road, they account for a disproportionately high number of traffic fatalities. In 2022 alone, there were 3,361 motorcycle-related deaths in the EU.
While fatalities have decreased by 20.8% from 2011 to 2022, these numbers still highlight the persistent dangers motorcyclists face. Ensuring their safety is not just a matter of reducing statistics, it is about saving lives and preventing the profound grief that follows such tragedies.
