It may be obvious, but motorbike accident injuries are usually likely to be more severe than those sustained in a car crash by passengers protected by a metal chassis, airbags and impact protection systems. Motorcycle riders are obviously more vulnerable and therefore their injuries, in the event of an accident, are likely to be of much graver consequence.
Probably the most common injuries, and likely to be the most life-threatening, are those caused by impact to the head and neck. Even the wearing of a fully certified safety helmet cannot always protect against the violent impacts felt in a motorbike accident. These closed head injuries, where the brain is shaken violently inside the skull, can cause massive damage and potential brain haemorrhage, which can prove fatal.
However, far more common are injuries to the body and limbs, as, even in a relatively minor motorbike accident, injuries to the exposed body parts of a biker or a pillion passenger can be acute.
Broken bones as a result of a motorcycle crash are probably the most common injuries sustained by motorbike riders. The very nature of a road traffic accident involving a motorbike and another vehicle mean that bike rider's limbs often come into direct contact with the road surface as they lose contact with the machine, or are crushed by the other vehicle involved. Either way, severe breaks may require surgery, and may leave the injury victim unable to resume their way of life in the manner they had previously experienced.
