Motorcycle Accidents in Delaware 
A motorcycle crash in Delaware can lead to serious and devastating injuries. According to statistics, about 80% of all Delaware motorcycle collisions will result in injuries. This is a much greater rate than accidents involving other types of vehicles. The reasons are obvious. Motorcyclists have almost no protection from the force and impact of a crash. Additionally, victims are often ejected from their bikes when they are struck. This creates a further possibility of injuries.
