Accident Statistics

Accident statistics have one message and that is to drive more safely. They remind us that there is a risk that if we're not careful, we might crash and hurt ourselves; members of our family; our friends; colleagues and maybe some strangers.

An estimated half a million people a year are killed world wide as victims of a road accident. Of these approximately 45,000 people are killed on European Community roads. 1.6 million people are injured yearly in the EC.
