Leave it to Colorado’s eclectic and inclusive government to come up with a humorous motorcycle safety campaign that features burly, biker-sounding voices singing some classic 80s songs. The goal is to remind motorists that they share the roads with motorcycle riders and that they should be aware of riders whenever driving (especially during the summertime).

This campaign that has been sponsored by the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) includes radio public safety announcements with rough-voice singers belting out “Somebody’s Watching Me” and “Don’t You (Forget About Me).”

Straight Talk on Motorcycle Safety

80s Hits Used to Promote Motorcycle Safety

Despite making up only 3 percent of the vehicles on our roadways, motorcycles are involved in a substantial number of deadly traffic accidents. In fact, motorcyclists account for about 18 percent of all traffic-related fatalities in the U.S. every year.

Here are a few other interesting facts and figures (from CDOT) regarding motorcyclists and motorcycle accidents:

Nationally, motorcyclists are about 26 times more like to be involved in a fatal traffic crash (than occupants of passenger vehicles), per mile traveled.
Motorcyclist deaths tend to peak during the summer months when more vehicles (and riders) are on the roads.
Not wearing helmets is one of the leading cause of deaths when motorcycle accidents occur.
At least 715 lives could be saved every year if motorcyclists wore helmets.

CDOT’s campaign is aimed at promoting driving safeyy and encouraging all motorists to be more aware of motorcyclists to prevent wrecks and save lives.

Staying Alive & Live to Ride

Attempting to target riders of all skill levels, CDOT’s campaign encourages riders to ride smart and have fun at the same time. To this end, CDOT authorities are reminding motorcyclists to:

Be Trained Up – According to estimates, motorcyclists were at fault in about 7 out of 10 deadly crashes.
Never Drink & Ride – Alcohol impairment is a huge problem in the biking community. An estimated 14 percent of those killed in motorcycle-related accidents in Colorado each year were legally drunk when their wreck occurred.
Always Wear Helmet – An estimated two-thirds of those killed in Colorado within the last year were not wearing a helmet when their motorcycle wreck happened.

Here, however, it's important to understand that the single best way to find out if you have a case - as well as what that claim may be worth and how to move forward to secure compensation - is contact a Littleton accident attorney at Littleton Lawyers™.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing!! If your looking and for legal help look no further. Mike Bhar and his lovely assistant Lana are amazing. Prompt, compassionate and really know what they are doing. Our family went through hardships after being ran over while on a motorcycle. The team guided us through the process and truly served us justice when the courts failed to do so. Mike was reassuring and took away the anxiety I had throughout the whole process. We were able to get the help for my injuries that were really needed and help get us back on our feet. We will forever be grateful for the help recieved by Mike and Lana at Littleton Lawyers. The event was traumatic and left a dent in our lives that almost crashed everything we have built. Not sure where we would be without these fantastic people. Saved our family from the worst. If your looking for honesty integrity and people that are passionate about what they do and will do it with confidence call Mike. I'll never call anyone else again for my legal troubles. Wonderful people that are human just like the rest of us. They will fight for you and everything that matters most. ❤️ Thank you guys again! The amount of gratitude I feel for these people simply can't be put into just one small review. Hopefully others that may be facing unfortunate hardships and need the legal help see this and make the call. Just do it!

Michael and Ben possess extensive knowledge of the insurance sector and will not hesitate to inform you if they believe the case lacks merit. Their guidance provided to our shared client during the legal consultation was exceptional. I highly recommend their services.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Michael Bahr is absolutely amazing! I was in a head on collision and after talking with several attorneys decided to go with Mike Bahr. I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. He is compassionate, reasonable, and a good lawyer all together. I was able to claim the maximum benefits from both my insurance and the at-fault parties due to the extent of my injuries. When you are in an accident there is a lot of unknowns that add additional stress on top of trying to heal. Mike was able to answer all the questions I had and made sure I was focused on recovery. On top of just being an outstanding person and attorney he also was reasonably priced. Some attorneys are only in it for the money, but Mike Bahr genuinely seems like he wants to help people. He was extremely helpful during one of the most stressful times in my life and for that I couldn’t be more grateful. If you are ever involved in an accident I 100% would recommend reaching out to Mike Bahr.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mike and Ben both worked on my case against the seller of my house that did not disclose a mouse infestation. Both of them listened to my case and discussed possible strategies to help me win. They had very little time to prepare (roughly a month) between the mediation and the trial. They were both very sympathetic to what had been an incredibly stressful situation. Because of Ben and Mike's help I ended up winning my case and I am beyond grateful for their help.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This office is so amazing, I want to share my experience about these amazing two people we met, Michael Bahr and Renee Vigil, We reached out to them to get help with fighting for grandparents rights, Due to my Son Passed away and now the ex-daughter in law wants to restrict us from seeing our grandkids. We had hired an other lawyer who was top of the line Lawyer  only to tap out of retainer fee of thousands of dollars to get really nowhere, When I met Michael and Renee I immediately felt the difference of them being  Caring, Compassionate and felt they were not just lawyers but real people who felt my story. These 2 people are really there for you! I would refer them and consider them even only after a couple of visits at first they make you feel so comfortable to talk to. They have certainly have made us a friend of there's for life and don't need to ever! look for attorney else where if I ever need legal advice.
