ANSWER:

Per vehicle mile, motor-cyclists are "35 times" more likely to die in a crash than those traveling by car.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Motor-cyclists usually drive at a very fast speed and also do not follow the traffic norms.
  • For motor-cyclists, the only protection is a helmet while those traveling in a car are protected from all four sided by the car body and other security equipment installed in cars.
  • This is one of the main reasons why very few motor-cyclists survive crashes.
