Who is more responsible for accidents involving motorcycles, the drivers or the riders? Or is it all the cat's fault?!

Most accidents are caused by drivers turning left in front of mc riders. No opinion, see the so-called "Hurt Report".

You can blame it on the cat if you want, but laws are laws. Most motorcycle wrecks involve a bike that t-boned a car. That means the car pulled out in front of the bike. I don't know what percentage.

depends on the situation a lot of times motorcycles speed in and out of traffic cuz the can in that they're at fault but other times people just don't look hard enough for motorcycles. i have had the strip between the windshield and the driver window completely hide a motorcycle its scary how easy it is to miss them thanks for bringing it up we should all be more aware of motorcycles :-)

Both...cars are often at fault (Ben Rothlesberger would've been ok if a car hadn't turned left in front of him!), but cyclists are also at fault frequently
cars sometimes don't see motorcyclists (for whatever reason), but motorcyclists have other issues(gravel is a real danger on a bike)

Stats prove that it's typically the driver of other motor vehicles...but I'm still convinced it's the cat's fault.

I ride a bike and drive too. I'd say the fault is around 50%.

Both. The cyclist does not take sufficient precautions to be seen. the driver is not on the lookout for cycles
