Are children particularly vulnerable to being run over?

Correct answer

Yes, because of their short stature.

Children travelling as pedestrians on the road are especially vulnerable to being run over, since due to their short stature the impact they suffer usually occurs to the head or other vital parts of the body, which can cause serious injuries. On many occasions children cross the road in an unregulated way, or act carelessly, which is why it is important that they are taught road safety education from childhood.
