Of 2,275 cases of non-fatal injuries sustained by all categories of road users 185 were inflicted on back seat passengers. Twenty-six such passengers sustained severe and 66 moderately severe injuries. Only two patients (aged 18 months and 3 years) wore any form of restraint. Back seat passengers may be injured by impact with the rear of the front seat or other objects in the rear compartment; by objects in the front compartment; or by being thrown out of the car completely. An adequate restraint system, such as the lap-and-diagnoal type of seat belt, would reduce the incidence and severity of injuries.
在各类道路使用者遭受的2275例非致命伤害中,有185例发生在后排乘客身上。其中26名后排乘客受重伤,66名受中度重伤。只有两名患者(分别为18个月和3岁)使用了任何形式的约束装置。后排乘客可能会因与前排座椅后部或后排车厢内的其他物体碰撞而受伤;因前排车厢内的物体而受伤;或者被完全抛出车外。一种合适的约束系统,如腰带式安全带,将降低受伤的发生率和严重程度。
