Road traffic injuries (RTIs) remain a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in Southeast Asia. We aim to estimate the prevalence and predictors of rear seatbelt use, a key behavioural risk factor for RTI, in Bandung and Bangkok, two cities in Southeast Asia. Roadside observational studies were conducted to provide a representative picture of the prevalence in each city. From eight rounds of observations (July 2015 to April 2019), 39,479 and 7,207 rear-seat passengers were observed in Bandung and Bangkok. Across all rounds, 4.2% of rear-seat passengers used seatbelts in Bandung, compared to 8.4% in Bangkok. In both cities, males and adults, as compared to females and adolescents (aged 12-17 years), had higher odds of rear seatbelt use, as did passengers with a restrained driver. Findings highlight the need for rear seatbelt laws in Bandung and improved enforcement of existing rear seatbelt laws in Bangkok.
道路交通伤害（RTIs）仍是东南亚地区发病和死亡的主要原因。我们旨在估算东南亚两座城市万隆和曼谷后排安全带使用情况的患病率及预测因素，后排安全带使用是道路交通伤害的一个关键行为风险因素。开展了路边观察性研究，以呈现每个城市患病率的代表性情况。在八轮观察（2015年7月至2019年4月）中，万隆和曼谷分别观察了39479名和7207名后排乘客。在所有轮次中，万隆4.2%的后排乘客使用了安全带，而曼谷这一比例为8.4%。在这两座城市中，与女性和青少年（12至17岁）相比，男性和成年人使用后排安全带的几率更高，司机系安全带时乘客使用后排安全带的几率也更高。研究结果凸显了万隆制定后排安全带法律以及加强曼谷现有后排安全带法律执法力度的必要性。
