1. Introduction Motorcycles and motor scooters are a typically neglected method of travel in traffic and transport planning in Australia. As a result, there is a significant knowledge gap in the topic of interest as past research rarely consider motorcycles on equivalent terms to other travel modes.

The crash Hit- to come against with an impact or collision, as a missile, a flying fragment, or a falling body.Right on the tail, we were hit with immense power. As I saw the cycle rapidly turning across the narrow street, I thought it would just glide on by, but as soon as I saw it quickly advancing, I knew what was next.
