Motorcycle
injury crashes and all crashes followed
the same time pattern, peaking at 4
PM with a smaller peak at noon. Fatal
motorcycle crashes followed a much
different pattern. Peaks occurred at 6 PM
and 10 PM (Table 5.02).
Table 5.03 shows the number of
motorcycle crashes and the rate of
motorcycle crashes per day for each
month. Not surprisingly, very few
motorcycle crashes occurred in the winter
months due to the decrease of individuals
riding a motorcycle. July had the
highest rate of motorcycle crashes and
injury crashes per day. While
September had the highest rate (0.2) of
fatal motorcycle crashes per day.
