摩托车的安全问题

摩托车的安全问题主要在于在摩托车本身及其配件的设计等各方面，以及其操控技巧及训练的各种问题。与一般轿车比较，摩托车缺乏车厢的保护，安全性较低，因此常被戏称为“肉包铁”或“皮包铁”。相对地，轿车则被称为“铁包肉”或“铁包皮”^[1]。这不单单是猜测，而是美国根据实际统计数字支持，摩托车的意外率比一般汽车为高。

意外率

根据美国的国家高速公路交通安全管理局（NHTSA）在2006年的统计数字，每10万辆汽车里，有13.10辆最终会涉及致命的碰撞；但对于摩托车，同等的统计数值却是72.34辆^[2]。另一方面，若比较平均行车里数的致命意外比率，摩托车的数值也同样比私家车远远为高，是私家车的35倍^[2]。究其主要事故原因，多为超速、酒后驾驶等异常驾驶行为。

在英国，根据其运输部于2004年的统计数字，若按每亿行车里数的严重意外比率的数字比较，摩托车的意外率是私家车的16倍，单车的两倍^[3]。

在中国，单单是广东省，省内交通意外就有七成与摩托车相关^[4]。
