Almost
half of the motorcycle drivers involved
in crashes were under the age of 30 years
(Table 5.10). The age of motorcycle
drivers involved in crashes and injury
crashes was highest for younger driver
(15-19 years) and decreased with
increasing age. The age of the motorcycle
driver involved in fatal crashes showed
no clear pattern, due in part to the
small number of fatal motorcycle crashes.
Most motorcycle drivers (93.6%) involved
in crashes were male. All drivers
involved in a fatal motorcycle crashes
were male (Table 5.11). This does
not necessarily indicate that male
motorcycle drivers are at a greater risk
for a crash but may reflect the higher
proportion of male motorcycle drivers in
Utah.
