SAFETY CYCLING DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC: A DESCRIPTIVE STUDY OF CYCLING BEHAVIOR
Main Article Content
Abstract
Corona Virus Disease (COVID-19) causes sudden changes in an individual's lifestyle, including physical activity and sports. Cycling is an excellent mode of non-motorized transportation: it is not only healthy but also reduces congestion and air and noise pollution in urban areas, with the advantage of being cost-effective. The measuring instrument used in this study, The Cycling Behavior Questionnaire, is a measuring instrument developed by Useche et al., [2] which aims to measure the behavior of cyclists on the road, there are three dimensions in The Cycling Behavior Questionnaire, namely violations, errors, and positive behaviors on the roads. This research was conducted from January to February 2022, by obtaining a research sample of 115 cyclists aged 19 to 60 years. The cyclists come from Jakarta and outside Jakarta. The research was conducted by distributing online questionnaires. From the results of the study that positive behaviors on the road were the highest among other dimensions. That is, the positive behavior shown is to support road safety. Cycling behavior cannot be distinguished by gender. However, in terms of the dimensions of violations, males are higher than females. Male cyclists are more prone to behavior that violates traffic signs on the road.
