The next part of the course is intended to make us think about the amount of effort we should put into preventing SMIDSY events (a driver pulling out of a side road in front of an oncoming vehicle).

In a few words/bullet points give your throughts on which

• road users
• road user behaviours
• event types

we should deal with first.

For the purposes of this exercise, you only have to choose between SMIDSY (car pulling out in front of bike) and SVLOC (motorcycle losing control, usually on bend).

Explain what information you need in order to help you decide.

Please feel free to say exactly how you think this decision should be made (use some stats, use our experience of which is most common, use our knowledge of which problem we can cure etc. etc. etc.)
