Motorcycling safety research: A review of the social and behavioural literature

Case study of the real contents delivered in French motorcycle schools

“…These data also confirm the hypotheses put forward by a lot of authors [42][43][44][45] that initial training concentrates on the ability to control the motorcycle to the detriment of hazard perception skills. For Allardice [46], the perceptual skills concerning the handling of the various elements of the real driving situation are often undervalued in motorcycle training systems.…”

Effectiveness of Motorcycle Training and Motorcyclists' Risk-Taking Behavior

“…Interestingly, in this model, the difference between young male and female motorcyclists was not significant. This differs from the findings from some previous work, such as that of Chesham et al, who found that young male motorcyclists are at a higher risk of accident involvement than other motorcyclists (14). In general, young males as a group have been found to behave more riskily than females and have also been found to have worse hazard perception (15,16).…”

Traffic behaviour among adolescents using mopeds and light motorcycles

“…Mannering and Grodsky (1995) conclude that age, gender, and experience are the significant determinants of accidentrisk assessment. This is in line with many retrospective studies of motorcycle accidents (Chesham, Rutter, & Quine, 1993;Christie & Harrison, 2001;Christie, 2002;Haworth, Mulvihill, & Symmons, 2005;Mullin, Jackson, Langley, & Norton, 2000;Hurt, Ouellet, & Thom, 1981). However, when age and experience are scrutinized the categorization is coarse, focusing on driving license categories or "young" people under 25 or 30 years of age.…”
