You are right its not true in all cases but insurance underwriters certainly have established a correlation between age and insurance claims. They have PHDs combiming through decades of data so I believe there is some truth to their conclusions. Me personally I rode 9 years ago at age 23 and I am definitely more risk averse now than I was then. I keep photos of my wife and kids in the map window of my tankbag and it reminds me to stay within my abilities and ride safely. No knock intended at younger riders
