MSF, VTTI to conduct 'naturalistic' motorcycle safety study

Quote:

The Motorcycle Safety Foundation today announced that it will partner with the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute (VTTI) on a motorcycle safety study that will use small video recorders and instrumentation mounted on numerous bikes for 6-18 months to gather data about the riders and events that occur.

Termed a "naturalistic" study, VTTI has developed this technology and used it successfully to conduct a 100-car study in 2005 that included 69 crashes and more than 750 near-crashes. According to the MSF, "The method is presently in use by researchers across the globe to target nearly every type of roadway user, with the exception of two-wheeled vehicles. This study, expected to be on the road by early 2011, will greatly advance the understanding of interactions among rider, motorcycle, roadway, other roadway users and the environment."

I am not letting them put a camera on my bike. It could be Exhibit A.
