methodology for in-depth motorcycle crash investigations. This means that for every crashed rider (Case), 2 or 3
other riders (Controls) are included from other motorcyclists who have ridden near the crash site.
Controls will be asked to complete an anonymous on-line survey about their riding experience, practices and
background.

Who can take part?
Any licensed motorcycle rider, aged 18 or older who has ridden in a specified area near one of the following crash
sites can take part in this study.

The list of crash sites will be continuously updated and more information available at http://www.neura.edu.au/motorcycle
