Samenvatting
AN ANALYSIS OF DATA FROM 1508 MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENTS OBTAINED FROM VICTORIA POLICE FILES FOR THE YEAR 1974 INDICATES THAT INADEQUATE MOTORCYCLE VISIBILITY IS AN ASSOCIATED FACTOR IN 64.5% OF AUTOMOBILE/MOTORCYCLE COLLISIONS. IT IS THE SOLE IDENTIFIABLE CAUSE OF 21.0% OF COLLISIONS. THE CONSPICUITY OF THE FRONT OF THE MOTORCYCLE IS FOUND TO BE VITALLY IMPORTANT IN THESE ACCIDENTS.(Author/publisher).
