Tyre tread marks on the body without internal injuries

X Abstract

Summary Two cases are presented involving a 5-year-old boy with tyre tread impressions on the back and right arm and a 4-year-old girl with tread marks on the head but both had no internal injuries. These cases suggest that injuries to internal organs do not always occur when the trunk or head is run over by the wheels of a vehicle.

These cases, at least the one involving the head are important if one wants to discuss if any conclusions can be drawn after people are "miraculously saved by helmets" without injury, for instance when being run over by a car.
