Influence of passive safety factors in pregnant women injury caused by traffic accidents
Prevention of injuries in traffic accidents that contribute to passive safety factors have saved many lives but the inappropriate use caused the injury that might have been prevented. This is particularly evident in pregnant women and children younger than 12 years. Unprofessional use of seat belts during pregnancy can cause injury that can be fatal for the fetus even within low driving speed. This is supported by the fact of the NHTSA that the accidents are greatest cause of death for pregnant women and unborn children. In addition to seat belts, in the past ten year considerable research was carried out on the impact of airbags on pregnant women and the potential dangers that threaten them, so it was considered to deactivate the air bags when driving pregnant women. The paper presents statistical data and research that have been made in developed countries and the recommendations as well as possible measures for the prevention of injuries in pregnant women in traffic accident in Croatia
