Article analysis:
The article is generally reliable and trustworthy as it provides evidence to support its claims from previous studies conducted by reputable sources such as Mannering & Grodsky (1995), Plasència et al. (1995), Lin et al. (2003), Rutter & Quine (1996), Haworth & Mulvihill (2005). The article also provides an overview of the motorcycle licensing system in Taiwan, which is useful for understanding the context of the study.
However, there are some potential biases that should be noted. Firstly, the article only focuses on motorcyclists in Taipei, Taiwan which may limit its generalizability to other contexts or countries. Secondly, there is a lack of exploration into counterarguments or alternative perspectives on the issue which could provide a more balanced view of the topic. Additionally, there is no mention of possible risks associated with riding motorcycles such as environmental pollution or noise pollution which could be important considerations when discussing traffic safety strategies.
In conclusion, this article is generally reliable and trustworthy but there are some potential biases that should be taken into consideration when interpreting its findings.
