BICYCLE SAFETY-EFFECTIVE INTERVENTION STRATEGIES. FINAL REPORT ON PROJECT FINANCED BY INSTITUTE FOR PUBLIC POLICY ALTERNATIVES 5/20/74-9/20/75

The growing sale and use of bicycles by all age groups in the USA inevitably increases people's exposure to the risk of a bicycle-involved accident. To decide upon the optimum strategies for a reduction of bicycle accidents a reliable data base is necessary. This report shows how such a data base can be collected and used to deduce effective intervention strategies. This report details the bicycle safety research conducted by the Department of Industrial Engineering during the period of support by the Institute for Public Policy Alternatives (May 1974-September 1975).
