Summer Motorbike Safety Warning

Police Scotland and the Scottish Government are urging bikers to `roll off the throttle'.

Scotland's motorbike season gets underway this weekend and a new campaign is being launched to make sure they're aware of the risks.

Motorcyclists account for over a tenth of road deaths, despite accounting for less than 1 percent of road traffic.

Officers say bikers are 50 times more likely to be die or be seriously injured than car drivers.
