Abstract

Using material covering approximately 3500 accidents with motorized two- wheelers, a realistic classification system is explained and problems of the different two- wheel categories are shown in this paper. Experimental and mathematical simulations of the main accident type lead to some suggestions on how to change the motorcycle by adding some safety elements to reduce the injury risk of the driver.
