Motorcycles have different licensing requirements, and come with caveat emptor that they are inherently unsafe in a motor vehicle accident.
That's not to say bikes don't have any safety at all... there is R&D that goes into making them safe in a collision... as safe as they can be.
Why can't we just accept that the KEI is less safe then?
Anyone who buys a Kei car already knows this just by looking at it.
Yup. I survived a high-side collision after being sideswiped by an SUV. Thanks to modern safety gear, I only had minor injuries with little long-term beyond an ankle to lets me sense slight changes in atmospheric pressure.
