Motorcycle positioning in queues at signalized intersections in city of Klang Valley

| description | For the past years, motorcycle fatalities have risen in Klang Valley with the overall constitution had passed 60% of total
road traffic accident (RTA). Many motorcycle fatalities occurred within intersections after a driver failed to see a
motorcyclist. However, little is known about the behavior of motorcyclists when they negotiate an intersection. This study
was undertaken to analyze the behavior of motorcyclist in queues at signalized 3-leg and 4-leg intersections along state
road of Klang Valley. An observational data was gathered based on microscopic data collected from video images that
were taken from a research vehicle instrumented with on-board video camera. The research vehicle made routine trip
through out Klang Valley for 10 weeks during peak and off-peak hour period. Twenty-seven (27) intersections with
traffic light captured by the research vehicle were selected and observed. The preliminary findings shown three-ways of
motorcycle approached the signalized intersection (SI), i.e. (1) approaching the SI with Weaving/Lane Splitting, (2)
approaching the SI from center of the lane, and (3) approaching the SI from the left side/the shoulder. 87% of the
motorcycle tend to maneuver in a queue during a red-light period, to avoid obstruction and tend to move forward for a
wide and clear field of vision closest to the stop line. It is recommended that an exclusive motorcycle stopping space is
provided for motorcyclist to enhance motorcycling safety and road safety in the country. |
