2008 UDOT bicycle crash study older, but still relevant

A snapshot from UDOT's bicycle crash analysis
I have had this document for a while now and it never crossed my mind to share it on the blog. UDOT, the state transportation department behind the Road Respect campaign and most state-wide road improvements, released their 2008 Bicycle Crashes analysis report a while back and it highlights some of the well-known facts as well as some surprises about bicycle crashes. Where they happen, when, why, and who is at fault. Check out the report (2 pages) and tell us what you think.

  1. Interesting that the biggest thing cyclists did to cause crashes, other than riding at all, was to ride on the wrong side of the road - my biggest pet peeve as a cyclist is people who ride that way!
