Motorcyclist are well known as being vulnerable Road Users and the risk of trauma is high.
Motorcyclists by nature like to ride in remote areas away from Medical Response
Motorcyclists are the most likely person to come across a motorcycle accident as we frequent the same roads or ride in groups.
Traditional Rider Safety focus in on Crash prevention and Medical Delivery focus on hospital recovery.
But there is a hole that exists which is immediately post crash. There is no plan until now
Normal risk management should always include a plan to respond to the event you are trying to avoid.
This is where the Bystander Assistance program and the Crash Course for the Motorcyclist has its strength
