Yeah, alcohol is involved in ~1/3 of US motorcycle accidents. Americans are uniquely dangerous to themselves in motorcycles compared to other countries.

    A year ago I learned that in my state most motorcycle crashes are single party (meaning there was no other vehicle/pedestrian involved), and of those, most motorcyclists were under the influence (drunk or drowsy). Still the most dangerous mode of transportation any way you cut it, but that particular mode of transportation happens to be really attractive to knobheads, just being a responsible rider will improve your odds on the road by leaps and bounds.
