Motorcycles kill more than BMTC buses?

An interesting stat in the data sets from Traffic police - despite all the negative talk about BMTC drivers (tabloids love it), motor cycles accidents result in more deaths on city roads than BMTC buses. Further, tractors cause more deaths on city roads than taxis and maxi cabs combined. So much for the yellow plate trash talk :)

Statistically speaking, lorries seem to be most dangerous - notice the high death to injury ratio (107/390). Other stat that catches the eye is - Motorcycles have higher death to total cases reported ratio than cars. 124/1428 vs 116/1925.
