Abstract

In an attempt to reduce the over- involvement of learner and first year probationary motorcyclists in accidents, The Victorian government amended the law in 1979 to restrict these riders to motorcycles with engine capacities of less than 260 cc. This paper presents an evaluation of sales figures and accident data which indicates a high level of compliance with the law amongst these motorcyclists.
