• Wear proper protection
• Ride responsibly 
• Be knowledgeable and practice how to properly operate a motorcycle 
• Ensure you are licensed prior to operating a motorcycle

In addition, when it comes to filing a claim involving multiple vehicles, it gets difficult. This is because determining liability can take much longer. Multi-vehicle collision claims are more complex due to numerous victims, multiple negligent drivers, cross-claims and insufficient insurance.
