Samenvatting

This paper summarises very briefly some aspects of trauma tot motorcyclists. The optimization of the motion path of the driver is shown to be a potential means of diminishing injury exposures coupled with knee pads and energy absorbing fairings. The provision of such fairings appears to offer the most obvious advance in the medium term, but the absence of biomechanical knowledge and appropriate surrogates for the lower limbs presents a problem for the development and assessment of such designs.
