Abstract
⺠In this study, we examined factors affecting the severity of motorcycle crashes on local roads. ⺠We found crash severity to increase in urban neighborhoods with loops and lollipops streets. ⺠It increased in right-angle, left-turn-across-path, truck, alcohol use or speeding crashes. ⺠It decrease in parking lots or winter, or involved a van, male rider or rider following too closely. ⺠The results were robust respect to different modeling methodologies.
