TY - JOUR AB - This paper analyses child pedestrian casualties in England, focusing on the influence of socio-economic deprivation. It develops an area-based model of pedestrian casualties and presents estimates based on data for the English wards. The results detect an association between increased deprivation and higher numbers of pedestrian casualties across England. The deprivation effect is strong both for all child casualties and for children killed or seriously injured. Estimates for adult casualties also reveal a positive and significant association with increasing deprivation. but the magnitude of the effect is smaller than for children. The paper concludes by outlining some of the implications of the research. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
