Report: More Marine Deaths From Motorcycle Crashes In Past 12 Months Than Iraq Combat

By Louthian Law Firm

Motorcycle accidents during the past 12 months have killed more Marines than combat duty in Iraq, a new report says.

The alarming death rate has prompted military officials to call a meeting to address the issue. Since last November, 25 U.S. Marines have died in motorcycle crashes, compared to 20 Marines killed during fighting in Iraq. All but one of the motorcycle wrecks involved a so-called "sport bike," which can easily exceed 100 mph.
