In a study of how close British drivers get to bicyclist when passing them a cyclist fitted a
bicycle with a video camera and an ultrasonic distance sensor. He then rode over a range of
urban and suburban road types recording the data from about 2,300 passing vehicles. During
some of the rides (chosen randomly) the cyclist wore a helmet and during some he did not. He
determined that drivers pass closer when cyclists wear a helmet.
(Walker, I. (2007) Drivers overtaking bicyclists: Objective data on the effects of riding position,
helmet use, vehicle type and apparent gender, Accident Analysis & Prevention, 39(2).)
a. Is the study an observational study or an experiment? If it is an experiment give the

b. Did the study use a representative sample from some population? If not, why not?
c. Did the study use random assignments to experimental groups? If not, why not?
d.
