dc.description.abstract	This brief report looking at media coverage of quad bike related deaths and injuries in Australia throughout 2010 indicates that there were at least nine deaths and 43 serious injuries. This is almost certainly an underestimate as not all incidents are reported in the media. Rollover events were responsible for 50% of the deaths and 36% of serious injuries.	en
