Abstract

Children are defined as 14 years old and younger. Motor vehicle traffic crashes are a leading killer of children. In this 2016 fact sheet, information on children is presented as follows: * Overview * Restraint use and effectiveness * Pedestrians * Pedalcyclists * Children in alcohol-impaired-driving crashes * Child motor vehicle traffic fatalities by state * Important safety reminders. This fact sheet contains information on fatal motor vehicle crashes and fatalities, based on data from the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS). FARS is a census of fatal crashes in the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico (Puerto Rico is not included in U.S. totals). The 2016 CRSS data was released the last week of March 2018, and therefore injury estimates are not presented in this publication. (Author/publisher)
