Abstract
The Commission for Children and Young People’s NSW Child Death Review Team 1998–99 Report found that, between 1996 and 1999, 17 children died after being reversed-over in home driveways in NSW. The number of children injured in this way was much higher. For example, between 1996 and 1998, 32 severely-injured children were admitted to the New Children’s Hospital at Westmead alone, after being reversed-over in home driveways.https://doi.org/10.1071/NB02036
