The US Department of Transportation recently released an analysis of its latest batch of motorcycle fatality and injury data, and there's a lot to take in. There are some things you'll probably expect (more or less), while other stats may surprise you. A few housekeeping notes before we dive in, though.
First of all, even though this data was released in 2025, it only covers the calendar year of 2023. Data analysis and reporting take time and are unfortunately not available in real time. Second of all, the geographic area covered by this reporting includes all 50 United States, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico.
Ready? Let's dive into these stats, shall we?
