The report presents some preliminary evaluations of the effectiveness of the three motorcycle licensing programs and remedial training with a sample of 40,874 subjects. The driver record analyses indicated a statistically significant reduction in motorcycle accident frequencies during the year after application in each of the two improved licensing programs, in comparison with the present program. The magnitude of the accident reductions ranged from 13-20%. Comparisons of the licensing programs on the other criterion measures revealed that the two improved programs did not differ from the present program in their impact on motorcycle and automobile convictions, automobile accidents, and total accidents and convictions. The driver record evaluation of training revealed a trend indicating that the training program was effective in reducing the incidence of motorcycle accidents during the year after application.
