ABSTRACT
Background: Accidents has been observed to hinder individual development and
reduce national economic intensification against expectations of Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs). The presence of users of motorcycles and the associated
accidents incursion offer a unique challenge in view of inadequate work force, which
is frequently lost. The study-determined effectiveness of participatory training in
improving knowledge and skills for basic life support among commercial
motorcyclists to address the problem.
Methods: It was a quantitative quasi-experimental study targeting 268 commercial
motorcyclists sampled randomly from 44 registered parking points. Data were
collected using self-administered questionnaire after consent and approval.
Participants were grouped into six groups not less than 40 except and trained hourly
everyday for each group in specified time. Data was analysed by descriptive and
inferential statistics using SPSS Version 20.0.
Result: All participants, 252 (100%) were male aged 20-29 years 119 (47.2%), 30-39
years, 95 (37.7%), 40-49 years, 36 (14.3%) and above 50 years were 2 (0.8%). In all
participants, 57.5% were not using protective boots when riding motorcycles while
29.7% and 28.6% performed drunken riding often and sometime respectively but
95.2% were not tested using breathalyzer and 94.4% were penalized due to couple of
reasons including drunken riding. Knowledge and skills change were statistical
significantly, t (251) =-53.65, p
