• Actually Paid / Should Pay Walk: 100.0% Bike: 96.6% Motorcycle: 34.8% Car: 59.6% Taxi: 47.8% Bus: 81.6% Metro: 89.7%
Personal mobility of using private motorized mode has been heavily subsidized by social resources
Motorcycle pay far less than should pay (including External Cost)

The “convenience” of motorcycles provide necessary mobility for economy. However, lack of policy, management and pricing scheme has caused huge social loss.
• Na+onal policy on motorcycle
• Benefits iden+fied w/ a good management on safety and environmental issues
• PCE of Motorcycle: 0.15~0.45 in various mixed rate and composi+ons Source: Dr. Kent Wang, DG of Kaohsiung DOT (2011)

Enforcement and Education
Education and Training 1. Wear Hamlet and other safety equipment 2. Watch closely on your partner seating behind you 3. Respect right of way 4. Keep reasonable distance and follow the signal 5. Always respect Pedestrian 6. Always think about family……
Environmental Issues 1. Stop two stroke MC since 2004 2. New Energy: e2W
e2W 1. Demo Project: Peng Hu Island Low
Carbon Village: 5,000 MCs w/ subsidy $250~$1,200 per MC +300 staCons, powered by solar and wind.
2. NaConal Encouragement Project: 15,000 MCs per year subsided with US$800 per MC.
Concluding Remarks ¡ Clear Management Policy. ¡ Research on Mixed Traffic Flow and Travel Behaviors.
¡ External Cost and Social Equity. ¡ Speed and Safety. ¡ New Energy Applica+on: M2W vs. e2W.
¡ Interna+onal Coopera+on.
