Motorcycle Training. Help or Hazard?

[Pterodactyl_imp]

Is there anything in the study that compares the accident severity of the trained versus untrained riders?

Is there anything in the study that compensates for the likely underreporting of accidents of untrained riders, at least some of whom are riding illegally?

Do we have any other studies to which we can refer comparing these same two groups further along in their riding careers?

Are untrained riders more likely to quit riding after their first accident than trained riders who may have more invested in the activity?

No one really needs to answer the above questions. They are submitted only to make the point that the study may not have compared enough data points to draw a fair conclusion about the benefits of training.
