Are car drivers holding a motorcycle licence less responsible for motorcycle-car crash occurrence? A non-parametric approach
No full textThe purpose of thiswork is to evaluate the effect of a specific motorcycle licence, held by car drivers, in responsibility for motorcycle–car crashes.
The data were provided by a multicentric case–control study (MAIDS) regarding the risk of crash and serious injuries of motorcyclists. A nonparametric
method, classification and regression tree (CART), was used to accomplish the objective, and then compared to standard unconditional
logistic regression. Drivers owning a motorcycle licence turned out to be less responsible for motorcycle–car crashes than drivers who do not have
one; both types of analysis are consistent with this result. It is reasonable to assume that car drivers who hold a motorcycle licence have acquired
more ability in riding and controlling two wheeled vehicles than drivers without a licence, and this may help them in predicting motorcycles
