Sorry Pete, stats came form trolling the Vic Police sites, Vic roads and newspaper links to glean a bit more info. Some stats were placed in a category due to lack of info....
But basically if bike hit a car thats turning right... "other driver error" , head on was classed as rider error unless further info showed it wasn't, 1 bike rear ending a car I took as other driver error because of situation even though technically it was rider error. Most of the rider errors though seemed to be single bike accidents on corners though 1 looks to be some guy leaving a pub at 2am (I am guessing pissed) and being found in ditch at 9:30am.
The other thing is all the "unrider" stats are actually part of the rider error stats and you cannot tell if there is a combination, eg an unlicensed rider on stole bike
It would be nice if the basic data was generally available that would also break it down by bike type, speed v speed limit, BAC, road type, etc....
