Of these,' 21 were underyi the age of -one. Up to half could have been saved if they had been fastened in approved restraining systems. • Another 231 .children died in the .one to fqur age group,, most of them struck by cars and a large number of them playing on the streets or driveways without supervision or after running, away from parents dr, older children in charge of them. ——Someirad-escaped-from -back yards, others were, killed 'while running across the street from the -front of their homes, attracted 'by noises and bright colors across the road. Parents could have prevented these accidents by . knowing where their children, were atall times, keeping doors and gates shut and keeping them indoors after - dark. Preschoolers - need simple; clear-cut rules such as "No running in the streets". In the five to nine age category, 342 were killed in traffic, •again the majority struck by cars. .Most of them were not following traffic safety rules at the time of the tragedies. In the 10-14 age group, 232 were killed in traffic, the largest number ,.while on foot and the next largest number while on bicycles.

They don't realize that a vehicle that seems very far away can be- upon them in a nutter of seconds. • Making •swe that preschoolers are supervised and that children know and understand the need for practising pedestrian traffic safety rules are the main ways to reduce child traffic fatalities. A different priority arises in . injuries. Ontario studies show --children are safer din --the streets_ than as passen ers. in motor vehicles with 'reards . to their chances.of being injured. • In that province, the child passenger injuries rose from some 7,500 to 15,000 between . ° 1961 and 1968 while child pedestrian,, injuries rose from some 10,Q00 to 13,000. The Canada Safety Council says the best way to reduce child passenger injuries is for parents to insist that all children over 50 pounds buckle their safety belts, propped up on a cushion if so desired, so they can see outside Fin- tots and babies, approved bassinets --and : specially built seats,• preferably anchored to the safety belt system, are proven 'devices for preventing ..deaths and injuries:, - - It's just not enough to buckle in the bids during long trips.
