Motorized two-wheel riders represent an important issue in the field of road safety, but little is known about the particular nature of the difficulties they have and the errors they commit on the road, nor of the special characteristics of the accident scenarios they are involved in. In-depth research has been undertaken to contribute to our understanding of this situation, using an analysis of detailed data gathered by multi-disciplinary teams at accident scenes. 80 accidents involving two-wheelers have been analyzed so as to define the typical errors that two-wheel riders are confronted with and the contexts in which these errors occur. These data are compared with those of a previous study based on the analysis of a sample of 392 situations involving car accidents. The differences are analyzed regarding the types of errors produced and the explicative elements for these errors.
