TY - JOUR PY - 2007// TI - Recognizing the importance of injury in other policy forums: the case of motorcycle licensing policy in Spain JO - Injury prevention A1 - Segui-Gomez, M. A1 - Lopez-Valdes, F. J. SP - 429 EP - 430 VL - 13 IS - 6 N2 - Policies that do not necessarily have the goal of affecting injury can nevertheless have a profound influence on the risk and burden of injury. A powerful example is the recent changes to motorcycle licensing policy in Spain. We argue that even when injury prevention is not the primary focus of a new policy, it is important for policy-makers to consider the implications for injury risk and to obtain expert guidance.
