Abstract Motorcycle crashes are an increasing road safety problem in the world, as this mean of transport has become a popular way to avoid traffic congestion, as well as a way to reduce the overall transportation cost, especially in developing countries. Currently, riding a motorcycle is also a lifestyle for many people. This publication presents a numerical approach to the subject of traffic accident involving a motorcyclist impacting a new on the market roadside barrier. Currently, there are still not explored construction solutions. The focus of the research is the determination of risk and potential consequences of motorcycle injuries using finite element method (LS-DYNA) coupled with multibody dummy model (MADYMO). Among many crash-tests carried out, there are still few simulations with the participation of motorcycles. The research conducted by authors is intended to draw attention on danger, to which some of the vulnerable road users are exposed. The paper points also on the overall complex motion and specific head-to-barrier impact – especially when neck injuries are concerned.
