Maintenance priority associated with powered two-wheeler safety
Powered Two-Wheelers (PTWs) provide a suitable mode for a large portion of population in many cities due to rider’s personal convenience and the vehicle supposed easiness of manoeuvring. At the same time PTWs present serious safety issues compared to other motorized vehicles. This paper reports the main outcome of study carried out in Rome, where this mode is very popular and assesses the economic efforts to make infrastructure safer for PTWs.
