Children between the age of 10 to 14 increasingl.y use their bik.e as a means of transport. Unfortunately, they still show deficits in competencies needed for safe traffic participation ( e.g. erratic attention or self-awareness ). This is reflected in an increase in the risk of accidents involving bicylces for 10-to 14-year-olds: 56.8% of 10- to 14-year-old children who have bad road traffic accidents in 2020, had bicycle accidents.
In Germany, there are various programs to improve bicycle safety for children. In contrast to the ,,Fahrradführerschein' (bicycle driving license which usually takes place in fourth grade), programs for 10 to 14 year-olds are less standardized and various offers exist. There has been no evaluation on the quality of these programs yet.
Therefore, we developed an evaluation standard for programs that aim to improve cycling safety for 10-to 14- year-olds. To do so, a catalogue of criteria was developed which helps describe and evaluate cycling projects for children in this age group. We then evaluated existing projects and collected them in a web-based database.
Our aim is to provide a gu.ideline to evaluating cycling safety programs for 10-to 14-year-olds and to offer an overview about various existing programs.
