Road crashes are one of the main causes of injury-related deaths of children in NSW. It is well known that factors such as speeding, fatigue, and driving under the influence of alcohol or other drugs are significant risks on the road. We also know that despite the strong message to ‘buckle up safely’, children continue to be placed at risk through failure to use – properly or at all – seatbelts and child restraints.
