N2  - Road traffic accidents are a major cause for severe injury in children and adolescents. Many victims also suffer from psychological consequences, such as posttraumatic stress disorder, traffic-related fears or mood disturbances. High levels of distress during and immediately after the accident are associated with severe posttraumatic stress symptoms. Routine consideration of the psychological impact of road traffic accidents should receive the same priority as screening for physical injury.
