Abstract Results of the 1974–1975 Upstate New York Survey of Hospitalized Burns identify motor vehicle related burns as an important contributor to burn morbidity (8.4% of the total number of hospitalized burn injuries). Males are at high risk compared to females, and the age group 15–24 years is at high risk compared to the population as a whole. Extent of injury and type of burn for the various vehicle categories are considered. Scalds from radiator boil-overs, flame burns from vehicle repair work and traffic accidents, contact burns from motorcycle exhaust components, and burns from fires and explosions on boats are identified as important injury situations. Potential prevention strategies based on these injury situations are discussed.
