More than half motorcyclists involved in a road collision reported injuries, with one in three suffering serious injuries.
A new report on motorcyclists from the Road Safety Authority covering a two year period to summer 2023 found more than one in 10 said they were involved in a road collision during that period.
The report also revealed the two most common reasons for road collisions were another vehicle coming from a side road pulling into their path and another vehicle colliding with the rear or side of their motorcycle.
86 per cent of motorcyclists admitted to filtering through stationary or slow-moving vehicles at least occasionally.
