SOSPEDRA-BAEZA, María José.; HIDALGO-FUENTES, Sergio  e  CUNADO-PEREZ, Lia. HUMAN FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH FATAL MOTORCYCLE SCOOTER ACCIDENTS IN SPAIN. Cienc. Psicol. [online]. 2017, vol.11, n.1, pp.49-56. ISSN 1688-4094.  https://doi.org/10.22235/cp.v11i2.1346.

Motorcycle accidents are one of the most important road safety issues worldwide. There is a lack of specific researches about the characteristics of the scooter-motorcycle accidents, motivated by the absence not only of a precise definition and but also by a properly identification of the different type of two-wheeled vehicles within the accident´s database. The aim of this study is to determine the characteristics of the 293 scooter-motorcycle drivers deceased in Spain in the period 2006 to 2011. According to the nature of the variables involved were performed descriptive and association analysis. The results of the analysis enable the identification some of the main human factors associated with the fatal accidents of scooter-motorcycle drivers.
