Professor Hurt, with a team of investigators (all of whom were motorcyclists themselves)<ref name="sound"/> examined motorcycle accident scenes in the City of Los Angeles, day and night, during the twenty-four-month period of 1976–77. They investigated over 900 accidents and studied 3,600 police reports from the area of each accident. Investigators later returned to 505 crash scenes to measure traffic volumes, photograph passing motorcycles and interview riders who stopped to talk with investigators. This allowed the research team to compare accident-involved riders to riders in the same location who were not involved in a crash.<ref name="sound"/> | Professor Hurt, with a team of investigators (all of whom were motorcyclists themselves)<ref name="sound"/> examined motorcycle accident scenes in the City of Los Angeles, day and night, during the twenty-four-month period of 1976–77.
