This annual survey presents statistics about personal injury road accidents in 200 and their consequent casualties. These national road accident statistics are collected and published to inform public debate and to provide an evidence base for shaping and monitoring effective road safety policies. These data are a prerequisite for the credible monitoring of targeted reductions in road accident casualties. As well as the detailed statistical table there are four articles that examine particular topics. They are: general review of personal injury road accidents in Great Britain in 2000; review of progress towards the 2010 casualty reduction targets; drinking and driving; the impact of speed cameras on road casualties.

This annual survey presents statistics about personal injury road accidents in 2001 and their consequent casualties. Between 1951 and 2001 there has been a six-fold increase in the number of vehicles, but the number of injury accidents has increased by less than a third. Yet a figure of 229,000 injury accidents in 2001, with over 40,000 people killed or seriously injured, points to this remaining a serious road safety problem. Against this background the Government announced a new road safety strategy in 2000, with casualty reduction targets for 2010 with special emphasis on child casualties. The statistics in this volume give the baseline averages to be used in monitoring the new targets, and an article examines the progress to date. Other articles cover drinking and driving, and an interim report on the 2002 quality review of road accident injury statistics.

This volume presents detailed statistics about the circumstances of personal injury road accidents. Some 50 data items are collected by the police STATS19 system for each accident, including the time and location of the accident, the types of vehicles involved and what they were doing at the time of the accident, as well as some information on the drivers and casualties involved. In 2009 there was a reported total of 222,146 casualties of all severities (4 per cent lower than 2009). Of those, 2,222 people were killed in road accidents, 316 fewer (12 per cent lower) than in 2008. It has long been known that a considerable proportion of non-fatal injury accidents are not reported to the police and the current best estimate is that the total number of road casualties in Great Britain each year is around 700,000. In addition to the detailed tables there are seven articles containing further analysis on specific road safety topics: an overview and trends in the police data; valuation of road accidents and casualties; drinking and driving; contributory factors in road accidents; survey data on road traffic accidents, including an overall estimate of total casualties; hospital admissions data on road casualties; road safety research. The statistics in STATS19 were reviewed recently and some changes recommended. Also, a new electronic police accident reporting system, CRASH, for secure collection, validation, transmission and storage of road traffic collision reports, is to be introduced in 2011 and 2012.
