Traffic accidents represent a significant threat to individuals, with motorcycles frequently involved. Despite concerted efforts by organizations like the World Health Organization and governments worldwide, reducing accident rates remains a challenge. Notably, Indonesia has witnessed a surge in traffic accidents, with motorcycles being a prominent mode of transport. This study aims to evaluate situational awareness and motorcycle riders’ behavior among Indonesians, with respect to factors such as riding time and age. This study involves laboratory-based research and uses quantitative primary data collected with the Situation Awareness Global Assessment Technique (SAGAT), the Situation Present Assessment Method (SPAM), and the Motorcycle Rider Behavior Questionnaire (MRBQ). The results indicate that overall situation awareness is low, with the lowest level among young riders. Nighttime situational awareness is also lower than during the daytime. Recommendations to improve situation awareness include periodic training with scenario-based sessions for motorcycle riders, strict adherence to driving regulations, the potential integration of motorcycle simulators, and prioritizing the program to enhance young riders’ situation awareness. These recommendations aim to boost rider safety and reduce motorcycle accidents.
