Motorcycling in a Safe System: How do we get there?

This is a PDF of the PowerPoint by Eric Teoh, Director of Statistical Services with the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) in his presentation to the Michigan Motorcycle Safety Action Team October, 2024.  The presentation reviews the four simple steps that would reduce motorcyclist deaths if we would only take them, as outlined in Teoh’s August 2023 article – speed, all-rider helmet requirements, motorcycle ABS and ADAS must detect motorcycles.  Also, included in the presentation is Teoh’s recently released study indicating more than 22,000 motorcyclist fatalities between 1976 and 2022 are due to allowing unhelmeted motorcyclist.
