Quick answer

In Chino, 18 people were killed or injured in crashes with a motorcycle involved and 77 speed-related fatal or injury collisions were recorded in 2023 (OTS).

Motorcycle insurance in Chino works differently from a car policy. California requires the same liability minimums for a motorcycle as for a car, but coverage for the bike itself, custom parts and passengers is handled separately — so the plan should fit how you actually ride.

Chino & San Bernardino County

The average one-way commute in Chino runs about 34 minutes, and mileage is one of the few rating factors you can actually change. 18.4% of Chino commuters spend an hour or more getting to work each way, which is a different risk picture from a short local drive. 0.9% of Chino workers get to work on public transit, so plenty of people here drive occasionally rather than daily. 13.5% of Chino workers now work from home — and if your car stopped commuting, your policy should say so, because annual miles are part of the rate. The state's own crash rankings recorded 445 people killed or injured on Chino roads in a single year, which is the number your liability limits are really there for. 22 pedestrians were killed or injured here in the same year, and pedestrian claims are exactly where a thin liability limit runs out.

How often does a motorcycle show up in a Chino crash report?
CHP's crash file logged 19 motorcycle-involved collisions among 668 in Chino in 2023 (every severity, freeway crashes included), and 430 of the 668 injured or killed someone. That count, not OTS's victim figure, is the one to weigh for collision coverage on the bike.

Is riding at night in Chino riskier?
In 2023, 30 fatal or injury collisions happened between 9pm and 3am in Chino (OTS rank: 64th-worst of 103 similar-size cities), and 52 people were killed or injured in collisions where a driver had been drinking.

I want to commute by motorcycle in Chino. What should the quote say?
The real miles. Chino's average one-way commute is 34.3 minutes; 17.5% of commuters take under 15 minutes and 53.8% take 30 or more, per the Census. Tell us whether the bike is a daily commuter or a weekend ride.

How much do drinking-related crashes figure in Chino?
In Chino in 2023, 52 people were killed or injured in collisions where a driver had been drinking (OTS rank: 28th-worst of 103 similar-size cities), and 21 people were killed or injured in collisions where a driver aged 21-34 had been drinking.
