Accident statistics and motorcycle accidents in Germany

In Germany, the number of motorcycle users killed in 2017 was 579, a decrease of 11%. However, the number of seriously injured motorcycle users rose by 1% to 9,555. This shows that despite an overall decline in the number of accidents, the risk of serious injuries is increasing. In particular, the trend towards using more powerful machines means that drivers of powerful motorcycles face a higher risk of injury. These developments are important for road safety and should also be taken into account in the context of the accident in Vorarlberg, according to BASt.

The exact circumstances of the incident in Satteins must now be investigated in more detail in order to avoid future accidents of this type. Drivers and their responsibility when using motorized two-wheelers are an important issue for safety on the roads.
