Cross-sectional analysis identifies factors affecting pedestrian injury severity, suggesting key interventions for safety improvements.

To identify factors influencing the severity of road traffic accident injuries among pedestrians in Thailand.
Conducted a cross-sectional study using secondary data from HAIMS database (2012-2021)
Analyzed 1,728 pedestrian cases using descriptive statistics and binary logistic regression.
60.76% of pedestrians sustained fatal injuries and 39.24% had non-fatal injuries.
Motorcycle-related crashes had lower odds of severe injury (OR = 0.083, p < 0.001).
Crashes in daylight showed lower odds of severe injury (OR = 0.498, p = 0.002); dark conditions without street lighting increased risk (OR = 2.078, p = 0.032).

A 2026 study studied this question.
