Motorcycle crashes and fatalities have
become a rapidly escalating traffic safety problem on our Nation's
roads. Motorcycle fatalities in the US decreased in 2009 for the
first time after steadily increasing for 11 years; however, even
with this decline, the number of motorcycle fatalities in 2009 was
nearly double that from a decade earlier (NHTSA, 2009, 2010) , . In
response to this sizeable increase in motorcycle fatalities,
motorcycle rider training has been promoted by advocacy groups and
States as a valuable countermeasure for motorcycle safety.
