abstract="Experiments were carried out, both in daylight and darkness, to discover what types of lighting arrangements best assist other drivers to see and make correct judgements about motorcycles in urban traffic conditions. Results showed that, in daylight, use of a large headlight or pairs of daytime running lamps can effectively improve the conspicuity of motorcycles. At night a large headlamp is also beneficial. The use of daytime running lamps in addition to the headlamp does not have advantages at night. Improvements in the identification of motorcycles in other traffic at night were achieved by using illuminated fairings or vertical strip lights in addition to the headlamp.   <p>Language: en</p>",
