Road traffic accidents have been recognized as one of those adverse elements which contribute to the suffocation of economic growth in the developing countries, due to the high cost related to them, hence causing social and economic concern, which are key pillars of vision 2030 of the government of Kenya. Previous endeavors to minimize bicycle accidents has been retarded by accidents caused by motorists on the road. This is reflected in an average yearly increase of 6.57 percent in the number of bicycle accidents in the year 2018. However, studies that have been conducted previously indicate that practicing prudent control of bicycle accidents has led to a decrease in the number of bicycle accidents. However, these studies never constructed and evaluated a bicycle collision avoidance system. Therefore this study sought to investigate the effect of the bicycle collision avoidance system on minimizing bicycle accidents. The specific objectives of this study were to increase reaction time of a bicycle when a vehicle is approaching so as to reduce bicycle accidents; to reduce number of accidents related to bicycles at night and to sustain proximity distance among road users so as to minimize bicycle accidents. The data was collected from Ogembo Omoringamu road, in Gucha town, Kisii County, Kenya. This study analyzed data using tabular and graphical analysis. Where the work of other authors was used, due acknowledgement was done. The researcher obtained a research permit from St Angela Sengera Girls’ High school and Kenya Science and Engineering Fair in order to enable the collection of data. The bicycle collision avoidance system helps in increasing the reaction time of bicycles on approaching vehicles. The bicycle collision avoidance system also helps in monitoring the proximity distance of vehicles from the bicycle hence minimizing road accidents. This study recommends that the bicycle collision avoidance system be implemented across all bicycles, motor vehicles and motorcycles in order to minimize road accidents. This study recommends that the government implement this gadget on a large scale basis since road traffic accidents have been recognized as one of those adverse elements which contribute to the suffocation of economic growth in the developing countries, due to the high cost related to them, hence causing social and economic concern, which are key pillars of vision 2030 of the government of Kenya.
