N2  - As might be expected from the accident data available, collisions between a car and a two-wheeled vehicle involve a risk of impact between the head and the vehicle which is higher in fronto-frontal collisions than in fronto-lateral collisions. Furthermore, they occur in zones of the vehicle which are also concerned by impact between the pedestrian's head and the car. In conjunction with the high impact frequency of the lower limbs of the pedestrian and the two-wheeled vehicle rider against the front face of the car, this remark would suggest that common benefit could be derived from possible modifications to the car designed for one or other of these two members of the traffic community.<p />
