Have you considered maybe showing them factual reports of the number of deaths per million motorcycles insured versus the number of deaths in 4+ wheeled conveyance among 16-21 YO males?

Or even taking the psychological route that your aunt has taken, and mind****ing them with something along the lines of "It's nice to know you don't trust me to not get drunk like a ****wad and ride around and kill people."

It's not the prettiest flowery solution to the problem, but it just might work. When all else fails, psychology rocks.
