Car drivers have a responsibility to avoid collisions with motorcyclists primarily because motorcycles are less visible and have a smaller profile on the road, making them more vulnerable to accidents. Additionally, motorcyclists often have less protection compared to car occupants, which increases the potential for severe injuries in a collision. By exercising caution and being aware of their surroundings, drivers can help ensure the safety of all road users. Ultimately, promoting mutual respect and awareness among all motorists contributes to safer roadways.

Why do drivers have responsibility for protecting motorcyclist?

It falls in line with being aware of your surroundings and driving defensively, which all motorists are responsible for, regardless of what they're driving. Emphasis is placed on motorcyclists not for the purpose of applying a different standard, but because they impose a particular risk, both for the motorcyclists and other motorists. They're much smaller than other vehicles on the road, and thus, are not as visible, particularly at night or in times of inclement weather. Thus, motorists need to be particularly aware of motorcyclists for this reason.
