UK public data, by local authority district
StatsMapped

The count stood at 245 in 2025. That is 10.3% lower than a year earlier. The series peaked at 273 in 2024; the latest figure is 10.3% below that peak.

Why the caveats matter

Every figure carries the publisher's own caveats. Where a statistic is published for a wider area than the one you clicked, or where the publisher itself flags it as unreliable, the page says so rather than quietly rounding it off.

The UK's four nations publish separately, so some figures stop at a border: house sale prices cover England and Wales, road collisions Great Britain. Pupil absence is published for England, but not every English district individually — some are reported only as part of their wider county. An area with fewer datasets isn't missing data — either its nation publishes that statistic through a different body, or (pupil absence only) its own district isn't reported separately.

What these terms mean

Collision
A recorded road traffic collision resulting in at least one injury, reported to the police under the STATS19 system — damage-only collisions are not required to be reported and are not included. Source
Severity
DfT classes each collision as Fatal, Serious or Slight, based on the worst injury recorded. This figure combines all three.

Before you use these figures

  • Great Britain only: STATS19 covers England, Scotland and Wales. Northern Ireland records road collisions through PSNI, a separate system not included here.
  • Open Government Licence: Source: Department for Transport, Road Safety Data (STATS19). Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0.
  • All severities combined: This figure counts every recorded collision — fatal, serious and slight — combined. DfT's own data separates these by severity; a severity-specific breakdown is not loaded here.
  • Collisions, not casualties: This counts collision EVENTS, not the people involved. One collision can produce several casualties, so this figure will usually be lower than a casualty count for the same area.
