Child pedestrian fatalities in Los Angeles.

In an analysis of information concerning 81 child pedestrians killed in traffic accidents in the city of Los Angeles during a recent five-year period it was observed that the majority of children were preschoolers playing near their residences but without adult supervision. In most instances the action of the child and not the driver of the vehicle was responsible for the accident. Among school age child fatalities, improper handling of a bicycle was commonly to blame.
