Cyclist pro­tec­tion

Accidents between cars and bicyclists often end with severe or fatal injuries for the cyclists. During the last decade the number of fatally injured bicyclists dropped, but the relative share of bicyclists increased significantly. In German cities the share of bicyclists in traffic rises. This is the reason why the safety of bicyclists in traffic ranks high in public awareness. Pushed by EuroNCAP and the European Commission future cars have to be address bicyclist protection by suitable active and passive countermeasures.

Acci­dents bet­ween cars and cyclists in dri­ve­ways

Are acci­dents bet­ween cars and cyclists in dri­ve­ways sup­po­sedly unim­port­ant? In order to inves­ti­gate this ques­tion, the Ger­man Insu­rers Acci­dent Rese­arch has exami­ned acci­dents of this type as part of a study.

Col­li­si­ons bet­ween cyclists and car’s door

For this study, the in-depth data­base of the Ger­man Insu­rers (UDB) was used. The ana­ly­zed data­pool con­tains 416 bicy­clist-car acci­dents. Data shows the need to address the front impact for bicy­clists (59 per­cent).

Sys­tems in cars desi­gned to pro­tect pede­strians and cyclists

In the past, sys­tems desi­gned to pro­tect cyclists and pede­strians were limi­ted pri­ma­rily to pas­sive sys­tems on the front of the car. Recently, howe­ver, active sys­tems such as emer­gency brake assist sys­tems have been incre­a­sin­gly coming to the fore.
