Traffic accidents represent significant obsession and concern for all members of society. They have become one of the most important problems that drain on manpower and material resources. In addition, it causes social and psychological problems for people with permanent disabilities caused by accidents. Thus, it becomes essential to find solutions and suggestions and put them into practice to reduce these accidents or at least address the causes and mitigate their negative effects. One kind of these traffic accidents is a motorcycle one, preventing their serious injuries and deaths is a major and growing public health concern. Motorcycling is enjoying an extraordinary boom in popularity. According to the Report 2010 of the Association des Constructeurs Européens de Motorcycles (ACEM) (European motorcycle manufacturers association), the number of motorcycles throughout the European Union rose from 16 million to more than 22 million between 2001 and 2008. At the same time, motorcycles are by far the most dangerous means of transport. In 2008 the European accident database CARE (Community database on road accidents) recorded 5,126 fatalities amongst motorcyclists (EU-24), which is around 14% of the 37,234 fatalities in these 24 States. This paper discusses mainly a reconstruction of a motorcycle head-on collision; will be shown a solution of a specific accident – head-on collision of two motorcycles- which happened in Czech Republic. Also an overview of traffic statistics in Czech Republic is discussed as well; since there are no specific traffic statistics for motorcycle itself then general statistics will be shown.
