According to Nadrich, Motorcycles have many advantages over traditional patrol cars, like the ability to split lanes in an emergency situation. The problem here lies largely with vehicles that fail to share the roads. Motorcycle accidents are increasing not just for cops, but across the board, and quite often, the liability lies with automobile drivers who engage in reckless or careless maneuvers. Nadrich believes that greater traffic enforcement is the ideal solution for quelling the problem of increased motorcycle injuries. I'm glad that the Bakersfield police force is acknowledging this very serious problem, but I hope that they will take the next logical step and increase traffic safety enforcement. This is especially important in the summer months, when motorcycle accidents increase across the nation. Chief Williamson was quoted by ABC as taking full responsibility for the decision to eliminate the motorcycle unit. "It was my decision to make and that's the decision that I made," he said. He also pointed to Bakersfield statistics that indicate a swift rise in motorcycle patrol injuries during the years 2007 and 2008.
