Man Dies In Howard County Motorcycle Accident

Fatal Motorcycle Accident in Howard County

On Sunday, May 20, 2012, a motorcyclist was driving a 2002 Honda motorcycle westbound on Route 99 in Howard county, when it left the road and struck a post, according to The Baltimore Sun. The driver was taken to Howard County General Hospital, where he was pronounced dead from his injuries.

Fatal Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcycle accidents are six times more likely to result in fatalities compared to motor vehicles, according to published statistics. One major reason is that motorcycles offer virtually no protection in the event of a motorcycle accident. Many states require motorcyclists to wear helmets to protect them from serious, if not fatal, injuries in a motorcycle crash.
