Correct answer
Not wearing a helmet.
One of the main causes of death in motorcycle and moped accidents is not wearing a helmet. This results in a greater likelihood that accidents will be fatal for their occupants. The key aspects are: high risk of serious or fatal injuries: motorcycle and moped users have a much higher risk of dying or suffering serious injuries in an accident compared with occupants of cars or heavy vehicles; nature of motorcycle accidents: the most frequent accidents involve head-on or front-side collisions with other vehicles and are often caused by traffic offences committed both by motorcyclists and by drivers of other vehicles, as well as by lack of experience, especially on bends.
