motorcycle crash typology

Classification of motorcycle crash patterns: single-vehicle versus multi-vehicle configurations, common pre-crash scenarios, and crash-type taxonomies for powered two-wheelers. The crash PATTERNS and their categorization, distinct from rider skill (motorcyclist_skill), conspicuity (motorcycle_conspicuity), machine handling (motorcycle_handling), and helmet injury protection (helmet_protective).
