Pedestrians are often considered the most vulnerable group of road users. The aim of our study was to analyze the forensic aspects of pedestrian traffic fatalities in Rijeka region. We analyzed pedestrian fatalities in a 5-year period (2002-2006), which included 44 fatally injured pedestrians examined at the Rijeka Institute of Forensic Medicine. The male:female ratio was 1:1. The median age was 57 (ranging from 2-95), with 66% aging over 60 and 89% aging over 40. The least of the accidents happened in July and during weekend. Almost 65% of the fatally injured pedestrians were sober (0.00 g/kg) and 24% had blood alcohol level of more than 1.50 g/kg. Our study showed that pedestrian fatalities in Rijeka region have specific forensic characteristics. These findings suggest the necessity of the specific approach and caution in planning of prevention measures for specific traffic fatalities, in this case pedestrian ones.
行人通常被认为是道路使用者中最脆弱的群体。我们研究的目的是分析里耶卡地区行人交通事故死亡的法医学方面。我们分析了5年期间（2002 - 2006年）的行人死亡情况，其中包括在里耶卡法医学研究所检查的44名受致命伤的行人。男女比例为1:1。年龄中位数为57岁（范围从2岁至95岁），66%的死者年龄超过60岁，89%的死者年龄超过40岁。事故最少发生在7月和周末。几乎65%受致命伤的行人没有饮酒（血液酒精含量为0.00克/千克），24%的行人血液酒精含量超过1.50克/千克。我们的研究表明，里耶卡地区行人交通事故死亡具有特定的法医学特征。这些发现表明，针对特定的交通事故死亡，在这种情况下即行人交通事故死亡，制定预防措施时需要采取特定的方法并谨慎行事。
