Show answer
Correct answer
- BLos conductores de motocicletas, ciclomotores y bicicletas.Riders of motorcycles, mopeds and bicycles.
Explanation
Motorcycle, moped and bicycle riders have no bodywork or passenger compartment to protect them, so in a collision or a fall their body takes the impact directly. That is why, in the same accident, they are much more likely to be killed or injured than people in cars or heavy vehicles.
