Our deepest condolences go out to the family of Clovis Madalozzo in this fatal motorcycle crash. A fatal accident is reported on Florida's streets and highways every three hours. The odds of being involved in a serious crash on a motorcycle are quite high. Motorcycles offer less protection from the force and impact of crashes when compared with cars and other traditional vehicles. In addition, a motorcyclist is likely to be thrown from their bike following a crash which is also likely to cause serious injuries or even death.
