Samenvatting
In Germany, the number of children killed and injured while travelling as passengers in cars has considerably decreased in the last few years. Between 1995 and 2007 the number of children killed decreased by more than 75%, the number of children seriously injured dropped from 2,929 to 1,274 (-57%). However, the number of children killed annually while travelling in cars is still higher than for other forms of traffic involvement, e.g. as pedestrians or cyclists. (Author/publisher)
