Abstract

Some of the risks and causes of injury to children associated with being unrestrained in car collision are outlined, based on a sample of high energy crashes. Data from a questionnaire survey of a separate sample of 663 children who were wearing some type of restrained system in collision is presented. Some consequences of these data are reviewed in relation to the dynamic modelling of young car occupants.
