Thats an intersting chart, and i conced doesnt align with my anecdotal data. Can you like the source post or data for this data?

I dont think its the scary boogy man of people snaching kids, but really drivers just on their phones, but hard to tell.

is this not about crash death for children inside the vehicle?

> crash deaths occur among children traveling as passenger vehicle occupants

just like most/all auto safty crash reports are about the occupants, not the meat popsicle they might hit

[Barrin92]

as it literally says both on the page and graph, both pedestrian and occupant numbers are down, surprisingly child pedestrian deaths fell at a quicker rate.

Seventy-eight percent of child motor vehicle crash deaths in 2021 were passenger vehicle occupants, 15 percent were pedestrians, and 2 percent were bicyclists. Child pedestrian and bicyclist deaths declined by 91 and 95 percent, respectively, since 1975. Passenger vehicle child occupant deaths in 2021 were 48 percent lower than in 1975.
