This paper analyzes the effectiveness of policies adopted by the main capital cities of Colombia to control the movement of motorcycles with passenger seats, concerning robbery against people from 2012 to 2017. The developed methodology applies a differences-in-differences model generally used to assess the impact of policies through the implementation of a data-panel model for both fixed and random effects; moreover, a multiple, clustered, linear regression model was also considered. The findings show that the policies adopted by these cities have been effective to reduce robbery against people.

Palabras clave : Random effects; fixed effects; robbery against people; motorcycle taxi.
