Jos haluaa tutustua vähän enemmän tieteelliseen kantaan mp-onnettomuuksista kannattaa vilkaista MAID -tutkimus
Linkki (vaatii rekisteröitymisen, mutta ei maksa).
Kummasti näyttäisi tutkimuksessa olevan eri syyt onnettomuuksiin ja keinot turvallisuuden parantamiseen kuin meidän kotimaisessa propagandassa. Vai onko tosiaan niin että suomalaiset motoristit ja liikenne on vain ihan erilaista kuin koko muussa Euroopassa...
yhteen vedosta mm.
"...the object most frequently struck in an accident was a passenger car. The second most frequently struck object was the roadway itself, either as the result of a single vehicle accident or of an attempt to avoid a collision with an OV. Whilst each sampling area contained both urban and rural areas, the majority of the accidents took place in an urban environment.
Travelling and impact speeds for all PTW categories were found to be quite low, most often below 50 km/h. There were relatively few cases in which excess speed was an issue related to accident causation."
(PTW tarkoittaa Powered Two Wheeler, OV on Other Vehicle)
"In 10.6% of all cases, PTW rider inattention was present and contributed to accident causation.
In 36.6% of all cases, the primary contributing factor was a perception failure on the part of the OV driver.
27.7% of PTW riders and 62.9% of OV drivers made a traffic-scan error which contributed to the accident.
32.2% of PTW riders and 40.6% of OV drivers engaged in faulty traffic strategies which contributed to the accident.
A difference in speed compared to the surrounding traffic was identified as a contributing factor for PTWs in 18.0% of all cases and a contributing factor for the OV in 4.8% of all cases.
The weather was a contributing factor or precipitating event for the PTW in 7.4% of cases.
3.7% of cases involved a PTW tyre problem and 1.2% a brake problem. "
En nyt tarkoita että tuokaan on mikään lopullinen totuus, mutta jotenkin enemmän luottamusta herättävä kuin nämä toisiaan toistavat mutuun perustuvat sanomalehtiartikkelit...
