The purpose was to create awareness on how occurrence of accidents among commercial motorcyclists can be brought to a minimum level or completely eliminated through the use of information. The total numbers of one hundred fifty were considered for study from various locations within Morogoro Municipality. The locations including Kihonda, Mafiga, Morogoro urban bus stand, Msamvu bus terminal, Postal area, Regional hospital, Mazimbu campus and Misufini were considered for data collections. The same numbers of respondents were found valid for analysis. Data were analysed through Statistical Package for Social Science. The findings of this study showed that demographic information has significant influence on the causes of road accidents among commercial motorcycle riders in Morogoro Municipality. Among factors that significantly contribute to increasing rate of commercial motorcycle accidents are: over speeding, wrong overtaking, bad roads, alcohol drinking and driving, bad road, lack of training and non-observance of traffic law. It was discovered that commercial motorcycle riders do not comply with the Road Traffic Act, 1973 as amended 2002. It is recommended that motorcyclists be issued road license after attending formal training. There should be a creation of road safety awareness using media as a means of communications at national level. The infrastructures should continuously be improved and there should be strict penalties against anybody contravening road traffic rules Private 2024-11-21T11:54:18Z 2024-11-21T11:54:18Z 2015 Thesis APA https://scholar.mzumbe.ac.tz/handle/123456789/1747 en application/pdf Mzumbe University |
