Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Pediatric Safety
  • Educational Intervention

Background:

  • Bicycle-related injuries and fatalities among middle schoolers remain a significant public health concern.
  • Effective safety education is crucial for preventing accidents involving young cyclists and vehicles.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of the University of Miami BikeSafe® program in enhancing bicycle safety knowledge among middle school students.
  • To reduce bicycle-related injuries and fatalities in Miami-Dade County.

Main Methods:

  • A train-the-trainer model was used to deliver a four-day, off-bike curriculum to 193 students in grades 6-8 across 6 middle schools.
  • Knowledge assessments were administered pre- and post-curriculum implementation.
  • Data were analyzed to determine the impact of the intervention on student knowledge.

Main Results:

  • A statistically significant improvement (p<.001) in bicycle safety knowledge was observed from pre-test to post-test.
  • No significant differences in test scores were found between different class periods, indicating consistent intervention delivery.

Conclusions:

  • The BikeSafe educational curriculum effectively enhanced bicycle safety knowledge in middle school-aged children.
  • The study supports the expansion of the BikeSafe program in Miami-Dade County and other high-risk areas to improve cyclist safety.
