Default Seatbelts in cars vs motorbikes

Seatbelts are obviously a safety feature of cars and save lives.

Not only are they available but they are also compulsory and fines apply for non compliance

But what about motorbikes? People riding around just hanging onto someones waste? The rider with no restrainment?

If you hit something in your car at 50km/h in your car with no seatbelt vs if you hit something at the same speed on a motorbike who is better off?

But if the car driver does not have his seat belt on its a fine?

Should motorbike riders require additional safety or should they back off car drivers? If someone drove around in a ute with someone on the back just holding on would they get fined?
