Understanding the behavior of cyclists and their relationship with the urban road infrastructure is essential to develop public policies and adequate infrastructure for cycling. In this research, an observational study of the behavior of cyclists in the city of Curitiba/PR was carried out from a naturalistic study carried out with car drivers. In order to analyze the behavior of cyclists regarding the use of infrastructure and risk behaviors, the study identified 523 episodes in which there were cyclists traveling in the city’s traffic, in total 182.39 hours of driving in the naturalistic study were analyzed. Cyclists were classified according to gender, traffic behavior, use of safety equipment, use of road infrastructure and behavior at intersections. To verify differences in the behavior of cyclists, statistical tests with confidence intervals of 95% and 99% were used. The results indicate that there is a greater predominance of males in the use of the modal, 93.4% of the identified cyclists were men and only 6.6% were women. Engagement in secondary activities is low, identified in only 0.4% of the sample. Regarding the use of safety equipment, it was found that 75.0% of cyclists did not wear a helmet and 64.1% did not use lighting at night. During this period, the proportion of helmet use is 19.2% more present than in the daytime period, however there is 24.2% greater disrespect to traffic lights than in the daytime period. In only 23.7% of the episodes there was adequate cycling infrastructure for cyclists, in these episodes, 79.8% actually used it. |
