There were 101 minor accidents, and no fatalities. Most bike fatalities in the ACT occur on-road and involve collisions with motor vehicles. There had been none in the years 1993-95. Injury accidents requiring hospitalisation occur more frequently off-road, either on footpaths or community paths. Comprehensive statistics on off-road accidents are difficult to obtain, as often such accidents are not reported because they do not require medical treatment and do not involve a motor vehicle.
Male riders have higher riding rates and accident rates than female riders.
Accidents involving bicycles occur more frequently at uncontrolled intersections and are most likely to be a right angle collision. Data from the ACT and around Australia point to cyclists five years to under 20 years of age having a higher than average rate of injury.
