Comparison of moped, scooter and motorcycle crash risk and crash severity.
The increased popularity of mopeds and motor scooters in Australia and elsewhere in the last decade has contributed substantially to the greater use of powered two-wheelers (PTWs) as a whole. As the exposure of mopeds and scooters has increased, so too has the number of reported crashes involving those PTW types, but there is currently little research comparing the safety of mopeds and, particu...
متن کاملBlackman and Haworth: Comparison of moped, scooter and motorcycle crashes 1 Comparison of moped, scooter and motorcycle crashes: Implications for rider training and education
Scooter and moped sales have increased at a faster rate than motorcycle sales over the last decade in countries such as Australia, Canada and the United States. This may be particularly evident in jurisdictions where moped riding is permitted for car license holders and a motorcycle license is not required, such as in Queensland, Australia. Having historically comprised only a small proportion ...
متن کاملMotorcycle-wall crash: simulation and validation
This paper describes the development of the motorcycle (MC) model and validation using a MC – wall Full Scale Test (FST). Individual components like the seat, tires and shock absorbers were tested as per procedures given in ISO13232 [5] and their FE models were validated against the component test data. A crash test of the motorcycle with a rigid wall had been conducted. There is a reasonable m...
متن کاملTrends in the Motorcycle Crash Problem
Motorcycle safety was a prominent public and political issue during the 1980s largely because of the dramatic increase in the number of deaths and injuries occurring at that time, commensurate with the growth in the number of vehicles and licensed riders (Simpson and Mayhew 1991). Since then, deaths and injuries have declined steadily and, as a consequence, motorcycle safety has become a relati...
متن کاملAlternative Crash Severity Ranking Measures and the Implications on Crash Severity Ranking Procedures
Most states currently use ranking procedures to identify intersections with safety concerns. One objective of a state intersection ranking procedure is to provide a reliable start to the prioritization of safety improvements. For efficiency purposes, it is crucial to have a ranking system that identifies intersections with the most severe safety concerns. Otherwise, potentially hazardous inters...
