Training of New Riders, New Hires at Motorcycle Delivery Companies)
In many parts of the world, particularly in developing countries, Powered Two-Wheelers (PTW) such as motorcycles, scooters, mopeds, and e-bikes, are a person’s first experience with motorized transport. However, unlike most developed countries, formalized/required training to support safe riding is not provided or mandated.
Road safety literature is clear that education and training to learn proper bike handling is critical to safe PTW operation. Given that 93% of global road deaths occur in developing countries, where PTW are often the most common type of motorized transport, it is unacceptable that our kids aren’t getting properly trained prior to engaging in what road crash statistics show is often a young person’s most likely cause of death.
RideHawk™ provides a cutting-edge solution that combines safety systems to keep riders safe on their journeys and objectively measures their safety and provides tailored feedback to help them improve their riding skills. As a further safety measure, a telematics feature allows the option for parents and guardians to be aware their teens’ location while riding and to alert them if RideHawk™ detects unsafe behavior or route choices.
