abstract="Results from current studies suggest that cyclists have a particularly high risk of involvement in injury accidents at some types of roundabouts compared to other road-users and other types of junction. At roundabouts about half the pedal-cycle accidents occur at roundabout entries; circulating cyclists are hit by entering motor vehicles. Although only 8 percent of the total number of pedal-cycle accidents occur at roundabouts and gyratory systems, cycle accidents appear to cluster at these types of junction, with a small proportion of sites accounting for a large proportion of accidents. This suggests cycle accidents at roundabouts could be substantially reduced by accident countermeasures aimed at relatively few sites.   <p>Language: en</p>",
