TY - JOUR PY - 2010// TI - Preventing Traffic Injuries: Strategies That Work JO - American journal of lifestyle medicine A1 - Dellinger, Ann M. A1 - Sleet, David A. SP - 82 EP - 89 VL - 4 IS - 1 N2 - Motor vehicle crashes result in more than 40,000 deaths and 4.3 million nonfatal injuries annually. Many known effective strategies to address these preventable deaths and injuries are closely related to lifestyle factors. Clinicians can play a large part in supporting effective interventions in their practice, for example, by counseling patients about seat belt use. Clinicians can also have an impact in their community by supporting positive public policy change.
