Abstract
Concern has been expressed by people living in all parts of Malaysia regarding the high number of traffic accidents. This study demonstrates that a mix of human qualities may be responsible for the increase in the accident rate experienced by motorcyclists while they are travelling on public roadways. There is a possibility that human factors, such as riding anger, riding attitude, and a lack of mindfulness, are the most common causes of motorcycle accidents. Research on the frequency of traffic accidents in Malaysia is still in its preliminary stages. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the association between riding anger, riding attitude, mindful driving, and the likelihood of being involved in a road accident. This investigation makes use of a quantitative methodology by means of a questionnaire that is disseminated to customers who are shopping at licenced Yamaha dealers in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor. The findings of structural equation modelling indicate that factors such as riding anger, riding attitude, and mindfulness have a significant impact on the likelihood of being involved in a road accident. The explanation of the current study, which includes both theoretical and practical relevance, as well as suggestions for reducing the number of accidents involving people who use roads, is presented here.
