O Brasil ? o quinto pa?s no mundo em n?mero de mortes por acidentes de tr?nsito, sendo que entre os anos de 1996 a 2009 a taxa de mortalidade por acidente de motocicletas aumentou em 800%. Este estudo objetivou identificar e compreender os fatores que motivam os motociclistas a escolherem a motocicleta como um meio de transporte, verificar se eles percebem o risco ao conduzir uma motocicleta, identificar poss?veis comportamentos inseguros e conhecer atitudes de preven??o de acidentes praticadas por eles. Optou por um estudo qualitativo do tipo estudo de caso, desenvolvido com os motociclistas v?timas de acidentes de tr?nsito que deram entrada no centro cir?rgico do Hospital Jo?o XXIII, localizado na cidade de Belo Horizonte/MG, no m?s de mar?o de 2016. O m?todo de coleta de dados foi a entrevista semiestruturada, gravada na forma de ?udio, com posterior transcri??o. Os documentos foram analisados na perspectiva da an?lise de conte?do por categoria tem?tica. Dos 15 motociclistas, todos eram homens, sendo a m?dia de idade igual a 26,9 anos. Os fatores motivacionais revelados foram: o ganho no tempo, a economia proporcionada pelo ve?culo, o gosto pela motocicleta, o fato de ser um ve?culo mais r?pido, a praticidade, a agilidade, o fato de ser mais barato, a situa??o de que a condi??o financeira ? de ter uma moto e a situa??o de ser o ?nico ve?culo dispon?vel no momento para uso do sujeito. Os motociclistas perceberam o risco a que est?o expostos, por?m apresentaram esta percep??o com enfoques diferentes, como a percep??o clara do risco, o risco relacionado a terceiros, relacionado ao condutor, associado ? exposi??o corporal, o risco cont?nuo e tamb?m o risco direto n?o percebido pelo motociclista. Os comportamentos inseguros foram: falta de aten??o, alta velocidade, andar no corredor, pressa demais, ultrapassagem perigosa, costurar no tr?nsito, agir por impulso, uso de bebida alco?lica, conduzir sem condi??es alimentares e exibicionismo. As atitudes de preven??o de acidentes reveladas foram: prestar aten??o, andar devagar, respeito ?s sinaliza??es, n?o realizar manobras perigosas no tr?nsito, realizar manuten??o cont?nua da motocicleta, manter dist?ncia entre ve?culos, utilizar seta adequadamente e sair de casa mais cedo. Entende-se que a motiva??o pode ser criada ao longo da viv?ncia dos motociclistas que s?o estimulados por quest?es sociais e culturais. No contexto atual observa-se que o meio de produ??o capitalista age influenciando e/ou determinando o modo de vida das pessoas. A pesquisa revelou a rela??o do uso da motocicleta com as necessidades trabalhistas. A hospitaliza??o dos motociclistas n?o demonstrou ser uma condi??o que limitasse as respostas deles em prol dos objetivos investigados. Os resultados encontrados foram semelhantes a alguns estudos realizados no Brasil, por?m destaca-se a rela??o entre o fator tempo e o aspecto financeiro como um conjunto quase que obrigat?rio para o motociclista na escolha do meio de transporte. / Disserta??o (Mestrado Profissional) ? Programa de P?s-Gradua??o em Sa?de, Sociedade e Ambiente, Universidade Federal dos Vales do Jequitinhonha e Mucuri, 2016. / About 1,240,000 people die every year in traffic accidents in the world, with 23% of these deaths occur with motorcyclists and between 20 and 50,000,000 suffer non-fatal injuries. The Brazil is the fifth country in the world in number of deaths from traffic accidents, and between the years of 1996 to 2009 accident mortality rate of motorcycles increased by 800%. This study aimed to identify and understand the factors that motivate the bikers to choose the motorcycle as a means of transport, check if they perceive the risk while driving a motorcycle, identify potential unsafe behavior and meet accident prevention attitudes practiced by them. Opted for a qualitative study of case study type, developed with the biker?s victims of traffic accidents who checked in the operating room of the John XXIII Hospital, located in the city of Belo Horizonte/MG, in the month of March 2016. The method of data collection was the semi-structured interview, recorded in the form of audio, with subsequent transcription. The documents were analyzed from the perspective of content analysis by thematic category. Of the 15 riders, all were men, the median age being equal to 26.9 years. The motivational factors revealed were: the gain in time, the economy provided by the vehicle, the taste for motorcycles, the fact of being a vehicle faster, practicality, agility, being cheaper, the situation of the financial condition is to have a motorcycle and the situation to be the only vehicle available at the time for use of the subject. Motorcyclists realized the risk to which they are exposed, but presented this perception with different approaches, as the clear perception of risk, the risk related to third parties, related the driver associated with the display, continuous risk and also the direct risk is not perceived by the biker. Unsafe behaviors were: lack of attention, high speed, walking in the hallway, in a flash, dangerous overtaking, sew in traffic, acting on impulse, use of alcohol, driving while impaired and exhibitionism. The attitudes of accident prevention revealed were: pay attention, walk slowly, about the signs, not perform dangerous maneuvers in traffic, perform ongoing maintenance of motorcycle, maintaining distance between vehicles, use arrow keys properly and leave home early. It is understood that motivation can be created along the experience of riders that are stimulated by social and cultural issues. In the current context it is observed that the means of capitalist production acts influencing and/or determining the way of life of the people. The survey found the use of the motorcycle with the labor needs. The hospitalization of riders not shown to be a condition that limited their responses for the investigated. The results were similar to some studies conducted in Brazil, but the relationship between the time factor and the financial aspect as a set almost mandatory for the biker in the choice of means of transport.
