3. FY08 Motorcycle Agenda 3 DoD Motorcycle Service Comparisons Fatality rates follow the general age groups in the service.
The Navy fatalities have generally decreased. The spike in FY06 was a result of one bad month, October 2006. There were 8 Navy fatalities in that single month. A combination of excellent weather conditions and a significant number of ships in port may have been factors.
CNIC provided contract trainers in 2005 which may have helped lower the mishap rate. In 2006 following the October spike, training was further increased with a goal of providing classes within 30 days of a rider requesting the class
USMC has the largest percentage of personnel under age 30, the highest risk population of all the services.
Less than 10% of registered motorcycles accounted for more than 25% of fatalities in 2006
Training appear to have helped lower fatalities in all services.Fatality rates follow the general age groups in the service.

4. FY08 Motorcycle Agenda 4 FY07 Class A Mishapsby Type Motorcycle (national stats are for CY05) FY07 Class A Mishaps
November 2008 NSC used the new data collected from PMV-MIR reports to isolate fatalities by type motorcycle.
Military, sport bikes are involved in a significant number of motorcycle fatalities.
National is not as pronounced but the National data is from 2005.
The significance drove the need for a Sport Bike specific training plan.

10. FY08 Motorcycle Agenda 10 USN/USMC FY 06 – 07 Motorcycle Class A Profile DON figures parallel National figures as far as age of riders and fatalities.
Speed or Loss of Control are leading factors, especially for Sport Bikes.
Nationally in 2005 Speed was a factor in 57% of the Sport Bike fatal crashes.
Training is either not documented or not complied with.
The focus for the future will be to reach all riders with training!
Priority will be first year riders who account for 48 Percent of the fatalities.
Riding Experience
18-26 yrs old – Less than six months
27-34 yrs old – A little over 5 yrs.
35+ yrs old - Greater than 10 yrs.

18. Sport Bike Training: Inception to IOC Slide 5 Sport Bike Training Progression
Sport Bike Riders and Coaches are being taught from the first day of testing. Training increases in Phases:
Phase 1: Training focus on students to field test the curriculum
Phase 2: Training focus on coaches to increase the instructor base
Phase 3: Training focus on “Train the Trainers” to provide an increased ability to train instructors.
2. Each location that tested the SBRC will be certified to continue teaching the course.
At the Completion of the Rider Coach Trainer Class (Pensacola), There will be at least one Trainer in each CNIC region.
By 9 May, Rider Coach Trainers will be able to certify their own Regional Coaches to teach the SBRC.
The Rider Coach Trainer Class should graduate: 6 Navy, 5 Marine, 1 Army
The SBRC Coach Certification will take 3 days initially
The SBRC course is 8 hours
3. Certifications:
Rider Coach Trainers “train the trainers” (and manage the Motorcycle training program)
Rider Coaches “teach the students”
Each region will be on line to teach all of their coaches and consequently start teaching all of their riders after 9 May. At that time the regions will be able to implement the program based on the availability of full size ranges and the number of Rider Coaches availible.
