Analysis of trends over time for motorcycle crashes in South Australia

چکیده
Results: Crash frequencies are tabulated with particular reference to (a) different ages of motorcyclist, (b) the metropolitan versus non-metropolitan distinction, (c) single and multiple vehicle crashes, and (d) gender of motorcyclist. Each analysis showed a similar trend in crash frequency for age groups, with younger riders (16-29yrs) declining in crash frequency, the intermediate age group (30-39yrs) consistent in frequency over time, and the older age group (40yrs and above) increasing in crash frequency per year, particularly in recent years.
