Hmmmmm....

151 people injured in 10 years....

15.1 people injured per year.....

7,000,000 riders per year......

That is an injury rate of about .00023%

Or, to put it another way, that is .216 injuries per 100,000 annual riders.

Perspective, using numbers from 2010....

Motor vehicle deaths in US per 100,000 people annually: 10.9
Firearm deaths in US per 100,000 people annually: 10.3
Motor vehicle injuries per 100,000 people annually: 1080


Horrors!
