(The remaining crashes occurred off <br />system - primarily in private parking lots). <br />A review of Minnesota's crash records system revealed the following facts <br />about characteristics and factors associated with serious Ped+Bike crashes. <br />A plurality of Serious Ped+Bike Crashes occur on city streets (44%) <br />and a majority of these occur on the Municipal State Aid (MSA) system. <br />One-half of serious Ped+Bike crashes occur at intersections and <br />the range is 42%along highways to 62%along the MSA system. <br />Of the intersection related crashes, 47%are controlled by traffic signals <br />(61%for highways and 17%for municipal streets) and 24% <br />by STOP signs (13%for highways and 44%for municipal streets). <br />Source: MnDOTCMAT2011-2020 32 <br />Page 164 of 185 <br />
