TY - JOUR PY - 1987// TI - Cycling experiences and knowledge of the road code of nine-year-olds JO - Accident analysis and prevention A1 - Langley, John Desmond A1 - Silva, Phil A. A1 - Williams, S. M. SP - 141 EP - 145 VL - 19 IS - 2 N2 - Sex differences in cycling experience and knowledge of the road code were examined in a sample of eight-hundred and fifteen nine-year-old children. The results showed that there were not significant sex differences for those who had ridden on the road or ridden to school in the week preceding the interview. However, males were more likely to have ridden at night. There were no significant sex differences in self reported unsafe acts or in knowledge of various dimensions of the road code. The results show a relatively high level of ignorance of the give-way rules for uncontrolled intersections and a disturbing number of children who reported they had ridden at night without tail or headlights.
