Annex F (informative) Rationale for ISO/DIS 13232-2

Describes minimum requirements for the collection and analysis of all motorcycle accident data, in order to provide: - a standardized and representative sub-set of car/motorcycle accident data; and - a sub-set of car/motorcycle impact conditions based on the analysis of this standardized accident data.

This part of ISO13232 specifies minimum requirements for the collection and analysis of all motorcycle accident data, in order to provide:

• a standardized and representative sub-set of car/motorcycle accident data; and

• a sub-set of car/motorcycle impact conditions based on the analysis of this standardized accident data.

ISO13232 specifies the minimum requirements for research into the feasibility of protective devices fitted to motorcycles, which are intended to protect the rider in the event of a collision.

ISO13232 is applicable to impact tests involving:

• two-wheeled motorcycles;

• the specified type of opposing vehicle;

• either a stationary and a moving vehicle or two moving vehicles;

• for any moving vehicle, a steady speed and straight-line motion immediately prior to impact;

• one helmeted dummy in a normal seating position on an upright motorcycle;

• the measurement of the potential for specified types of injury by body region; and

• evaluation of the results of paired impact tests (i.e. comparisons between motorcycles fitted and not fitted with the proposed devices).

ISO13232 does not apply to testing for regulatory or legislative purposes.
