“…Frequent use was observed in Italy (98%) while in China 64% of children were restrained in CSS irrespective of the fact that no law mandates this practice. Twenty percent of parents in Turkey and Armenia used CSSs; however, in Russia, 11% of children were seen through car windows in their safety seats [13][14][15][16][17]. Refuse of child to stay in CSS, inability to afford CSS or choosing to place the child in adult's lap were cited as common reasons for non-use among these countries [13,14].…”

 Abstract-The aim of the study was to evaluate relevant factors related to causes of Road Traffic Accidents, RTAs, among drivers in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, UAE. A questionnaire was developed and piloted in the UK and UAE. There were two versions of questionnaires distributed, one in Arabic language and the second one in English language. All respondents completed and signed a consent form which included information on their rights to withdraw from the study. Six hundred questionnaires were distributed in Abu Dhabi, with the help of two research assistants, from which 291 questionnaires from 185 males and 106 females were returned. The results have identified a number of factors as causes of road traffic accidents in Abu Dhabi and suggested ways to reduce the high RTAs reported in the country. The paper argues that the government should continue to encourage participation of all relevant stakeholders for RTAs reduction initiatives.

“…Driver gender, age, educational level, income, marital status, BMI, religiosity, and race have been reported to be determinants of driver seatbelt use (3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16). Driver behaviors such as speed (17), mobile phone use while driving (18), alcohol/drug involvement (8,12), smoking, driving errors, regular walking, and having adequate sleep (19) are also predictors of seatbelt use for drivers.…”

Background: Seatbelts are a relatively low-cost safety device that provides easy basic protection for occupants of 4-wheeled vehicles. Objectives: This study investigates frequency of seatbelt use and its related factors among drivers involved in a vehicle crash. Materials and Methods:In this cross-sectional study, all crash profiles recorded in a province from March 2010 to March 2011 were reviewed. Necessary information was extracted from crash reports in which at least one 4-wheeled vehicle was involved. Data were analyzed using binary and multinomial logistic regression. Results: Of a total of 1427 motor vehicle crashes, a seatbelt was used by 58.2% of drivers. In the univariate analysis, the following were significantly associated with seatbelt use: driver age, education, and occupation along with front seat passenger's sex and seatbelt use, type and make of vehicle, speed, road surface condition, and type of road. In the multivariate model, the following remained significant: driver education, seatbelt use by front seat passenger, and type of road. Furthermore, a restraining seatbelt protected drivers from severe injury and death. Unbelted drivers were 7 and 17.4 times more likely to experience injury and death respectively than belted drivers. Conclusions: The seatbelt wearing rate among the study participants was much lower than the 90% rate reported among Iranian drivers in 2010. Mandating seatbelt use, as in most countries, will be more effective if a combination of factors such as changes in vehicle design, road safety, and driver and passenger behavior are taken into account.
