摘要：	A tragic consequence of the reunification of Germany in 1989 was the increase in traffic related fatalities. This paper addresses motorcycle accidents in Germany before and after the reunification. Several sources of statistics were used in order to get a database for further analysis. Comparisons are made with car accidents and fatalities of vehicle occupants. Considerable differences are found for the period before 1989. After the reunification accident rates for the former German Democratic Republic increases with an enormous rate. The author discusses possible explanations to this phenomenon. In general, it is concluded, that a sudden push in motorisation with the presence of vehicles with more powerful engines together with inexperienced drivers and a less developed road network led to this increase in fatalities. For the western part of Germany there seems to be no effect at all of the reunification process when it comes to traffic related accidents.
