Increasing Motorcycle Conspicuity: Design and Assessment of Interventions to Enhance Rider Safety

By Geoff Underwood, Lars Rger, Lars Rößger, et al.

How driving simulation, field studies and laboratory experiments can be used to improve rider safety is illustrated in this text. It outlines the factors that contribute to the visibility of powered-two-wheelers (PTWs) and their detection by car drivers, and presents case studies to illustrate how the various methods can be used to explore the contribution of these factors. The final chapter highlights the utility of a simulation-based approach to improving PTW safety and discusses this method's future applications.
