N2  - The aim of the study mentioned in this paper is to indicate priorities in the field of bicycle and moped injury prevention research, based on criteria given. This study is a part of a preparation for a SWOV accident investigation project that has to identify and to quantify factors influencing injuries of pedestrians, cyclists, moped-and motorcycle riders in accidents. A global description of the accidents of bicyclist and moped riders in terms of age, collision partner and collision type will be given in this paper. The development of hypotheses for accident investigations can be concentrated on these priorities. The results may also be used to select representative accident situations for mathematical modeling and for experimental research methods. Due to a relatively high level of registration by the police of numbers killed and of severely injured road users in the Netherlands these data may be used to quantify these priorities.
