Description
Summary:Transportation is the systems used to make a movement.In transportation system there has five modes which are air transport, road transport, rail transport, sea transport and pipeline.Road transport consists of motorcycle, cars, bus, heavy vehicles and etc.In Malaysia, road transport has a higher risk to involve with the collision on the road. Motorcycle more risky other than vehicles to involve with the road accident.This is because the level safety for the motorcyclist is lower than other vehicles.The Intelligent Transport System1 helps to improve the safety and efficiency of the surface transportation system.The aim of study is to measure the effectiveness of implementing Intelligent Transport System on motorcycle safety.In this study, the researcher used qualitative and quantitative method as approach to measure the relationship between Intelligent Transport System and motorcycle safety.
