AI-generated summary
A 3-year-old child died from blunt head trauma after being run over by a four-wheel drive vehicle near Trial Harbour, Tasmania. The child was part of a family group on a recreational four-wheel drive expedition. While the father and older brother exited the vehicle at a steep incline, the deceased remained near the vehicle. As the driver began moving forward slowly, the child was struck and run over, suffering fatal crush injuries to the head. The coroner found the driver was experienced and cautious, the vehicle was mechanically sound, and the driver could not see the child due to positioning relative to the vehicle's structure. This tragic accident highlights the hazards of young children being in proximity to moving machinery in remote settings.
