A recent study done by the State Department of Public Safety shows that, despite the growing number of licensed motorcycle drivers in Ohio, the number of motorcycle fatalities has actually decreased in the past year. The study concludes that there have been 120 motorcycle fatalities so far in 2011, down from 158 in the same period in 2010. The Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles has stated that the number of motorcycle endorsed licenses is up roughly 11,000 compared to 2010.

As this study shows, motorcycles are gaining popularity and are having an increased presence on Ohio roadways. With this increase, however, comes with more danger to motorcycle riders.
