IDP Question
I'm saying tht 75% of road deaths are motorcyclists. 80% is the figure usually applied to vulnerable road users. (this includes motorcyclists.) We were talking about motorcycles. human error is involved in up to 93% of all crashes - but unfortunately people don't understand what human error is. In Thailand th road and driving environment exacerbates the effects of a crash - in fact the amount of collisions is estimated by many to be roughly the same in Thailand as UK only the effects are much more dire.. Speed is a factor in a crash - vehicles primarily absorb kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion, and this energy is converted into other forms like heat, sound, and the deformation of the vehicle. (and the occupants) How they absorb this is down to th vehicle and the road safety environment. once a crash is occurring the driver however skilled has lost control and what remins is down to the road design, vehicle constra=uction and the emergency services. -
