dc.description.abstract | Motorcycle theft is one of the fastest growing forms of motor vehicle theft globally and nationally; however, studies on motorcycle theft are scanty. The study therefore examined patterns associated with theft of motorcycles in Nandi Central District of Nandi County with a view of generating information that would help in designing strategies to control and/or prevent the crime. Specifically, the study sought to establish the magnitude of motorcycle theft; demographic characteristics of motorcycle taxi operators who have fallen prey to the thefts; methods used by thieves to steal motorcycles; specific locations/sites and times when the thefts are perpetrated; and challenges faced by motorcycle taxi operators and the police in combating the crime in the district. | |
