There were 469 unnatural deaths among the Sheffield child population between 1947 and 1979, 226 of which were caused by traffic accidents. The annual incidence of these fatal traffic accidents has risen steadily since the early 1960s with boys being consistently more vulnerable. Fatal accidents were disproportionately higher among socially deprived families and in poorer areas of the city. The environment rather than the child may be 'accident prone' and there is an urgent need for safer play areas in deprived areas.
1947年至1979年间,谢菲尔德儿童群体中有469例非自然死亡,其中226例由交通事故所致。自20世纪60年代初以来,这些致命交通事故的年发生率稳步上升,男孩一直更容易受到影响。在社会贫困家庭和城市较贫困地区,致命事故的比例格外高。可能是环境而非儿童“容易出事故”,贫困地区迫切需要更安全的游乐区域。
