Hazards to children in traffic. A paediatrician looks at road accidents

R H Jackson. Arch Dis Child. 1978 Oct.

Abstract

An overall view is presented of the hazards to children in traffic. The importance of the developmental aspects of childhood accidents is stressed, and a plea is made for doctors working with children to recognise the part they could play in reducing the number of road accidents to children by their understanding of child development and behaviour. It is an aspect of preventive paediatrics that is largely neglected at present.
