Foreign motorcyclists are prone to greater risks than the locals in most countries worldwide [1]. Risk parameters identified include lack of knowledge of traffic regulations, inadequate driving skills, different seasons, and general attitudes towards traffic safety reflected in driving behavior [2]. Along with tourism development, the number of foreign motorcyclists also increases. Therefore, safety measures are essential [3]. In this research, by using data collected from 71 foreign motorcyclists as respondents, we study the influence of local road and traffic conditions, human factors, and local law enforcement on the behavior of foreign motorcyclists around tourist areas in Bali. The method used is Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The expected contribution is a model that finds how local law enforcement affects foreign motorcyclists' behavior around tourist areas in Bali, which can significantly reduce the risk of accidents for foreigners. The results are that local law enforcement can act as a moderating effect of human factors on the behavior of foreign motorcyclists with a P-value of 0.008. Foreign motorcyclists' behavior in tourist areas is also directly affected by their behavior in their origin country, with a P-value of 0.035. But local law enforcement cannot act as a moderating effect of local road and traffic conditions on the behavior of foreign motorcyclists with a P-value of 0.441. The research concluded that foreign motorcyclists' behavior in Bali tourist areas is positively influenced by the local law enforcement by authorized officials. It shows that the more stringent enforcement of the law, the better the behavior of foreign motorcyclists. And better conduct of foreign motorcyclists can reduce the number of accidents involving foreigners in the tourist areas in Bali.

“…To better understand the phenomenon of HV impact on capacity reduction, this study investigated mixed flow conditions on the arterial roads of Bali with and without median at varying numbers of lanes and speeds at peak hours. A previous study [11] also suggested that further research is needed on the influence of the presence of other transport modes on HV speed choice.…”

Despite the increasing number of heavy vehicles (HVs) on the road, little attention is paid to the impact of HVs on traffic flow. Due to their different physical characteristics (length and size) and operational characteristics (acceleration and deceleration) compared to other vehicles, HVs have a physical and psychological impact on the traffic around them. On the other hand, many studies done on changes in road capacity yield a single value of road capacity. In this study, however, the road capacity is analyzed with probability distributions. This study found that the road capacity increases since HV reduction has a constant value with 85% and 50% cumulative probabilities. On major roads, reducing HV by 10%, 20%, 30% increases road capacity by 3-4%, 8% and 11-12% respectively. Lower HVs ratios are less likely to reduce road capacity. However, the speed of HV and other modes does not directly affect the cumulative probabilities. In addition, as the ratio of HV increases, the speed difference between vehicle types decreases. This study is limited to rush hour traffic flows so that a further study can consider the total duration of mixed traffic conditions.
