Motorcycles Drivers Georgia Traffic Safety Facts
(2020)
This document is the Appendix for the 2020 Motorcycles Georgia Traffic Safety Facts. Visit https://www.gahighwaysafety.org/highway-safety/shsp/ to access the full report.
Data Considerations:
Alcohol-Related Crashes: For fatal crashes only, Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) values are imputed to address the problem of
missing blood alcohol test results in FARS data system. For motorists and non-motorists involved in a motor vehicle traffic crash that may or may not result in a fatal injury, many drivers confirmed or suspected of alcohol impairment will not have a BAC value reported in the police crash report. Drivers suspected of alcohol may have an alcohol test administered; however, the results or findings were not validated or included in the final police crash report.
Motorcycle Registration: Motorcycle registration data for 2019 was obtained from the Department of Revenue (DOR) by special request
on the calendar year in lieu of state fiscal year. Although motorcycle registrations may use the terminology All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) to describe off-road motorcycles, this fact sheet only considers any motorcycle involved in a crash on public roadways. Additionally, motorcycle registrations include commercial and non-commercial motorcycles. Commercial motorcycles include motorcycles owned by dealers or manufacturers.
Suspected Serious Injuries: Suspected serious injuries are reported by law enforcement and used when any injury, other than fatal injury,
prevent the injured person from walking, driving, or normally continuing the activities the person was capable of before the injury occurred.
