abstract="Inadequate technology, poor quality data and poor assessment of the available data mean issues concerning the relationship between speed and crash risk for motorcycles are masked in the statistics we monitor and report, usually on an annual basis. It is exceptionally difficult to accurately determine true mean speeds for motorcycles; a dedicated sampling effort is probably necessary to remove sources of error that otherwise show that motorcycles are no more likely to travel faster than cars. Motorcycles do travel faster than surrounding traffic and this is rarely considered from the perspective of their elevated risk for crashes or from the perspective of examining the system that creates this opportunity.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
