Introduction
This report details an in-depth analysis of UK’s current car accident trend on a yearly basis. This report also studies factors on the reasons behind the current trend and how these factors may affect further years ahead. Our study goes by the theory that we will see a further increase in car accidents over the coming years.
This report concludes with explaining what are the main causes of car accidents and includes our experienced advice on how to avoid overall car collisions.
Reported Road Casualties Trend 2016 (Latest Figures)
After studying the total reported road casualties yearly reports from 2011 being the first year of the study, we were able to find a surprising development. From 2011 – 2013, we found reported total casualties to drop from 203,950 total casualties to 138,660. All 3 years you will find the number decreasing.
However, from 2014 – 2016, that number increased back to a total of 181,384 reported casualties in 2016. By looking at the graph above, it seems that overall the number of total casualties in car accidents has decreased over time, however, I would argue that this number is going back on the rise due to a few factors.
