Missouri Department of Transportation officials say the number of motorcycle fatalities dropped dramatically in 2009.
The department said Friday that 85 people were killed in motorcycle crashes that year, a 21.5 percent decrease.
Nationally motorcyclist deaths were down 10 percent. Both in Missouri and nationally the number of motorcycle related deaths had increased for eleven years before 2009.
As the weather improves more Missouri motorcyclists are expected to be on the roads.

Don't you just love the incredible wisdom of the last line????

I heard the same thing a couple weeks ago. But they also stated it could be do to less bikes on the road do to the economy being so bad, People may not be riding as much for pleasure or touring as much as past years. We can hope this is not the case though. I think the "cages' are still out to get all of us.

It good news to hear that more bikers are keeping the rubber side down. Will this result in a drop in insurance rates in your area?
