What is the cause of most collisions between automobiles and motorcycles?

  1. Drivers unfamiliar with the roadway

  2. Automobile drivers not seeing the motorcycle

  3. Mechanical failure

  4. Speeding

The correct answer is: Automobile drivers not seeing the motorcycle

Many people may assume that the cause of collisions between automobiles and motorcycles is either due to unfamiliarity with the roadway or mechanical failure. However, data shows that the most common cause of these collisions is actually due to automobile drivers not seeing the motorcycle. This can be due to blind spots, distracted driving, or underestimating the speed and distance of the motorcycle. While the other options may play a role in some cases, they are not the primary cause of these collisions.
