abstract="In a case-control study on the risk of traffic accidents among motorcyclists in Singapore, we demonstrated an inverse monotonic relationship between accident risk and driving experience. As compared to drivers with less that 1 yr of driving experience, the odds ratios (adjusted for race, age and frequency of riding) for those with driving experience of 1-4, 5-9 and 10 yr or more were 0.60, 0.50 and 0.36, respectively. We propose that intensive in-circuit training of learner motorcyclists should replace the conventional on-the-road training on the basis that the former serves to increase their driving experience without subjecting the learner motorcyclists to the risk of sustaining road accident.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
