According to the state Department of Transportation, the number of fatal motorcycle accidents in Wisconsin continues to increase.
The deaths of 68 motorcycle drivers and one passenger were reported in 2007 as of Monday. That compares to 57 drivers and eight passengers in 2006.
I blogged about this serious situation on our roads in
late July. We have a lot of warm, motorcycle-riding weather left so please use caution while driving motorcycles, and the same holds true for motorists in other vehicles around motorcycles.
