abstract="&quot;Ute surfing&quot; is the practice of standing, unrestrained, on the load tray of a utility-type vehicle while it travels, often at high speeds. This activity is often combined with the use of alcohol or other drugs. We present a series of four patients who presented to the neurosurgical service at John Hunter Hospital (Newcastle, NSW) following ute-surfing accidents over 18 months. These cases illustrate the serious dangers of this pastime, and the spectrum of head injuries seen in a major neurosurgical trauma centre as a result.  <p>Language: en</p>",
