Speaking of how common motorcycles are thes days as mentioned in the previous thread, here are just a few pictures of my motorcycle accident patients. Its so common that a day doesn't go by without us receiving at least 1-2 patients here at the ER.

Usual causes...
1. Intoxicated while driving a motorcycle
2. Motorcycle vs. car / truck
3. Out of control due to overspeeding

This patient was intoxicated while driving his motorbike late one night. Tried to overtake a car ahead of him and ended up getting sideswipped by an incoming jeep
