Evaluating ways to prevent motorcycle crashes in Texas

Researcher: Patricia Turner

Sponsor: Texas Department of Transportation

The objective of this project is to assist TxDOT in preventing and mitigating motorcycle crashes by developing a broad-based plan containing countermeasures and outreach activities. Researchers will examine existing and emerging technologies, crash patterns and injury outcomes, and will identify outreach avenues to determine recommended countermeasures. Ultimately, this toolbox of solutions has the potential to reduce motorcycle-related injuries and fatalities as well as provide baseline information to track the future effectiveness of implemented programs.
