Motosikal adalah antara punca utama kemalangan jalan raya di kebanyakan rangkaian jalan raya di negara Asia termasuk di Malaysia. Ini menunjukkan bahawa penunggang motosikal adalah antara pengguna jalan raya yang paling terdedah di seluruh rangkaian ini. Demi keselamatan penunggang motosikal di Malaysia, kertas penyelidikan ini memberi gambaran keseluruhan pelaksanaan kotak simpang motosikal di beberapa persimpangan jalan raya terpilih di Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur. Kertas penyelidikan ini menyiasat sama ada zon yang dilaksanakan boleh membantu dalam mengurangkan kadar kemalangan yang melibatkan motosikal dengan menganalisis kebolehcapaian zon, sama ada zon adalah berkesan dan apakah tahap kesedaran dan penerimaan orang ramai ke arah kewujudan zon ini. Kaedah pengumpulan data adalah dengan menggunakan borang soal selidik sebagai pengumpulan data primer dan data sekunder diperolehi daripada agensi-agensi kerajaan dan swasta yang berkaitan. Hasil analisis data menunjukkan pelaksanaan zon motosikal terbukti baik dalam mengurangkan kadar kemalangan motosikal dan keberkesanan zon juga dicapai. Kira-kira 42.7% daripada responden mengetahui mengenai kewujudan zon tersebut di beberapa lokasi terpilih dan hampir 90% daripada mereka menerima bahawa zon yang dilaksanakan boleh membantu dalam mengurangkan kadar kemalangan motosikal di Malaysia.
