Cartographie en ligne des collisions et des quasi-collisions fondée sur la rétroaction du public (BikeMaps.org)

As part of a UVic research project, we are interested in obtaining information regarding your cycling experiences. In particular, we would like to know about any incidents that you have had. The data collected is completely anonymous. The survey should take approximately 3-5 minutes.

By logging onto this website and answering questions, you are consenting to participate in a study conducted by researchers from the Department of Geography at the University of Victoria and the Faculty of Health Sciences at Simon Fraser University. All information gathered will be completely anonymous. Volunteers must be 13 years of age or older to participate. Parents or guardians may log the details for participants under the age of 13. Please be advised that once a volunteer participant has submitted their survey, it is impossible to withdraw this data at a later date given that it is fully anonymous. Also, the data may be used in additional future studies.

The data collected from this research will enable researchers and graduate students to study the patterns of bicycle collisions and near misses.

Funding for this research project has previously been provided by an NSERC Engage grant to Dr. Trisalyn Nelson and a Public Health Agency of Canada grant to the Traffic Injury Research Foundation (TIRF). Other project partners providing in kind support include: the Captial Regional District (CRD); the Canadian Automobile Association; Strava.com, and the Traffic Injury Research Foundation (TIRF).
