作者使用交通暴露数据来计算美国基于暴露的致命和非致命交通伤害率。使用具有全国代表性的数据来确定1999年至2003年发生的致命和非致命交通伤害,并使用2001年全国家庭旅行调查来估计交通暴露(即个人旅行)。按旅行方式、性别和年龄组计算每1亿人次的致命和非致命交通伤害率。总体致命交通伤害率为每1亿人次10.4人。致命伤害率最高的是摩托车手、行人和骑自行车的人。非致命交通伤害率为754.6 / 1亿人次。非致命伤害率最高的是摩托车手和自行车手。基于暴露的交通伤害率因交通方式、性别和年龄组而异。摩托车手、行人和骑自行车的人面临着更高的受伤风险。男性、青少年和老年人的风险也在增加。现有有效的干预措施,应予以实施,以保护这些脆弱的道路使用者。
The authors used traffic exposure data to calculate exposure-based fatal and nonfatal traffic injury rates in the United States. Nationally representative data were used to identify fatal and nonfatal traffic injuries that occurred from 1999 to 2003, and the 2001 National Household Travel Survey was used to estimate traffic exposure (i.e., person-trips). Fatal and nonfatal traffic injury rates per 100 million person-trips were calculated by mode of travel, sex, and age group. The overall fatal traffic injury rate was 10.4 per 100 million person-trips. Fatal injury rates were highest for motorcyclists, pedestrians, and bicyclists. The nonfatal traffic injury rate was 754.6 per 100 million person-trips. Nonfatal injury rates were highest for motorcyclists and bicyclists. Exposure-based traffic injury rates varied by mode of travel, sex, and age group. Motorcyclists, pedestrians, and bicyclists faced increased injury risks. Males, adolescents, and the elderly were also at increased risk. Effective interventions are available and should be implemented to protect these vulnerable road users.
