Collisions involving a reversing passenger vehicle and a pedestrian or another vulnerable road user on public roads are not common in Western countries (approx. 10% of reported pedestrian injuries in Australia). However, these low-speed crashes are particularly injurious events and likely underreported. An inter-national analysis of European, US and Australian data showed that 7.4% of these reversing incidents involved a fatal outcome (for the pedestrian) and the majority involved a severe injury (fatal or non-fatal). Moreover, they are highly under- reported as many occur on private roadways and pathways. Reversing cameras have the potential to save serious injuries and lives.
