I found this relatively recent info on the NHTSA website concerning motorcycle safety. I have not seen this previously mentioned on the MOA website and thought that the membership might have some interest.
The press release is here:

From my brief scan of the action plan I'm pretty much in agreement with the direction being taken. I also think that the same ideas (training, keep impaired operators off the road, safe vehicles, safe roads, etc.) could be extended to our friends in four (or more) wheeled vehicles.
