Following the most serious motorcycle accidents, those that cause fatal personal injury, the victims' families may choose to place roadside tributes and memorials at the location of the crash.
This is not without problems, as highlighted by stories of families being told to remove a tribute to their lost ones by council officials. On one hand, this can be seen as heartless bureaucracy from the local government, but those bureaucrats do actually have some arguments on their side.
The first is that, as these serious motorbike crashes tend to occur at potentially dangerous points in the road, the people laying floral tributes or plaques may themselves suffer personal injury in a further road traffic accident. A related reason is that the tributes that have been left may be dangerous if they distract riders and drivers, although some counter this with the point that they may also serve to warn of the dangers that led to a motorbike accident.
Most councils operate a policy of allowing tributes to remain for a period after the fatal accident, where safety is not felt to be affected, and then remove them. West Sussex, for example, allows a twelve-week period, while Thurrock allows flowers to remain for 30 days.
