Not that I'd dispute the car bit, but I'm pretty sure the most dangerous thing about riding a motorcycle is the fact that you're moving 60mph on an object that will do exactly nothing to prevent you from suddenly decelerating via smashing into any of the several miles of concrete and asphalt surrounding you in every direction the second the delicate physics problem that is a two-wheeled vehicle in motion exits the realm of 'ideal conditions'.
No, the fact that there are multi ton metal boxes all around you also going 60+mph is by far the bigger factor. The majority of motorcycle crashes are not with stationary objects.

They're not called 'donorcycles' for no reason.
