In honor of the wonderfully named Hurt Report, can we name this won "It's the Left Turners, Stupid!"
I'll perform the study for less than half the cost and refund $1.8 million:

1. A bunch of riders crashed because they rode over their heads.
2. A bunch of riders crashed because they're f'd up on something.
3. The rest of the riders crashed because some cager f'd up.

Hey what about me?

I donated last year when they, AMA, were trying to raise money that was going to be matched at some multiple by someone. How come I didn't recieve a write up? Just kidding. I wonder how many AMA members donated?

The scary part of your post, is that it's about 99% correct!
I have yet to receive your funds. I accept PayPal if that helps.

I show a debit of $100 from my checking account Titled "AMA Crash Research Fund", or something like that.

Yeah, I suspect there will be all the stats on rain vs. nice weather, single bike versus multiple vehicle, yada yada yada. The question always remains: how come some guys ride for years without an accident and others can't make it home from the dealer?
Well there you go: It should read: "KMooreMart Crash Research Fund." Apparently you've been victimized by one of those darn Internet scams.

My wife and I have a running joke about trying to get grant money for any possible reason.

It'll happen. The best so far was to try to get grant money to research the uses of grant money. I think that one has some legs.
