Factors Related to Safety Riding Behavior in Online Motorcycle Taxi Drivers

Abstract

Safety riding among online motorcycle taxi (ojek online) drivers is critically important as it involves the lives of the drivers themselves, their passengers, and other road users. In general, most online motorcycle taxi drivers have complied with safety riding regulations. This study employed a literature review method by examining research journals from several databases using specific keywords and criteria within the last five years (2020–2025). The search yielded 15 journals related to riding safety among online motorcycle taxi drivers. The journals reviewed were scientific health journals registered with ISSN, sourced from databases such as Google Scholar, DOAJ, and ResearchGate. The results of the literature review indicate that the factors contributing to accidents are influenced by a lack of concentration and the pressure to meet daily income targets. These conditions encourage online motorcycle taxi drivers to take greater risks while riding, thereby increasing the potential for accidents.
