This study aims at identifying determinants of motorcyclists’s attitudes and analysing their influences on the occurrence of traffic accidents and offences. A self-reported questionnaire survey was distributed in year 2016 among a representative sample of motorcyclists in Denpasar, Bali. The questionnaire consisted variables of socioeconomic factors, the use of motorcycle and riding history, learning method and experience on riding motorcycles, motorcyclist attitudes and involvement in traffic accidents and offences. The results show that age and education level influenced learning method and experiences variables while gender did on motorcyclists’ attitude. In addition, learning method and experience and motorcyclists’ attitudes on the road were two significant factors respectively that negatively affected motorcyclists’ involvement in traffic accidents and offences. In other words, ages, education level and gender have significant indirect influences on motorcyclists’ involvement in traffic accidents and offences. The influence of gender implies that compared to females, male motorcyclists are more likely to fail giving priority and violate parking signs. In comparison with females, male motorcyclists therefore, are more likely to get involved in traffic accidents and offences. Interestingly, this study indicated that motorcyclists with a higher education were not a guarantee not to involve in traffic accidents and offences.
