Children are at significant risk of road injuries in Australia, with transport-related injuries one of the leading causes of death in children under the age of 15. In the 2008/09 financial year alone, there were over 7,000 injuries to Australian children under the age of 15 caused by land transport
accidents.
Kidsafe WA acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we live, work and play. While our office is located on Whadjuk Noongar Country, we extend our respects to First Nations Elders and their people across Western Australia where our vision, purpose and values extend.
