| Abstract | Social inequalities play a role in road traffic injuries, but this issue has been given scarce attention in France. More precisely, the high number of injuries among adolescents is generally explained by behavioral factors. However, epidemiological studies in Great Britain and Sweden suggest that there is an "over-risk" for children and adolescents among the poor and in deprived neighborhoods. This exploratory study aims at testing the hypothesis of the existence of social and spatial inequalities in road traffic injury patterns, concerning the 14-17 years old. Secondary analyses of household travel surveys and statistical files of road traffic injuries in the Lyons' urban region have been conducted. Injuries appear significantly more frequent for the residents of deprived areas, for pedestrians (for both sexes) and for bicycle users (for boys) and less frequent for motorized two wheelers (for both sexes). These inequalities appear to be linked to the contrasting conditions of daily mobility of adolescents of the two types of places of residence, and partly related to socio-spatial inequalities. Methodological questions are then discussed in order to obtain deeper understanding of this problem. |
