Towards an understanding of the factors associated with severe injuries to cyclists in crashes with motor vehicles
Wahi, Rabbani Rash-ha (2018) Towards an understanding of the factors associated with severe injuries to cyclists in crashes with motor vehicles. PhD thesis, Queensland University of Technology.
Description
This thesis aimed to develop statistical models to overcome limitations in police-reported data to better understand the factors contributing to severe injuries in bicycle motor-vehicle crashes. In low-cycling countries such as Australia, collisions with motor vehicles are the major causes of severe injuries to cyclists and fear of collisions prevents many people from taking up cycling. The empirical results obtained from the models provide valuable insights to assist transport and enforcement agencies to improve cyclist safety.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
