Estimating the influence of accident related factors on motorcycle fatal accidents using logistic regressio (case study: Denpasar-Bali)

In Denpasar the capital of Bali Province, motorcycle accident contributes to about
80% of total road accidents. Out of those motorcycle accidents, 32% are fatal accidents. This
study investigates the influence of accident related factors on motorcycle fatal accidents in the
city of Denpasar during period 2006-2008 using a logistic regression model. The study found that
the fatality of collision with pedestrians and right angle accidents were respectively about 0.44
and 0.40 times lower than collision with other vehicles and accidents due to other factors. In
contrast, the odds that a motorcycle accident will be fatal due to collision with heavy and light
vehicles were 1.67 times more likely than with other motorcycles. Collision with pedestrians,
right angle accidents, and heavy and light vehicles were respectively accounted for 31%, 29%,
and 63% of motorcycle fatal accidents.
