Is this an American thing? In Australia the leading cause is suicide, with auto accidents a distant second. However, it is the leading cause for 1-14 year olds.
It is at world level, according to WHO

In the linked page the same WHO states that road fatalities are the leading cause of death “for children and young adults aged 5–29 years”:

Ah yeah, based off what I read that makes sense with that wider age range.
