Road traffic accidents are an important cause of death and serious injury in developed societies. The pattern of incidence has marked spatial and temporal regularities and the geography of road traffic accidents can inform us better about the nature of the problem and the extent to which traditional solutions may or may not reduce the level of accidents. The paper reviews what is currently known of the geography of road traffic accidents, highlighting the importance of child casualities in the overall problem, and suggests that the geographical analysis identifies some novel approaches to accident alleviation
