Abstract

The purpose of this study was to conduct an initial examination of the effect of two different motorscooter brake control configurations on operator braking response time. The method was a basic laboratory response time test of light stimulus to brake control activation using stationary vehicles. Operator braking response times were longer for a hand lever front brake/foot pedal rear brake configuration than for a hand lever front brake/hand lever rear brake configuration. (A)
