Persons killed. January. 2001-2010

Persons seriously injured. January. 2001-2010

The average for January over the last 10 years is 64 severely injured and 21 fatalities. In January 2009, 59 persons were severely injured and 18 persons killed in 481 accidents.

Twelve men and seven women were killed in road traffic accidents last month. Thirteen were drivers of cars, four were car passengers, one pedestrian and one person sledging.

Police figures

The statistics are based on accidents reported to the police. Less severe accidents and injuries are often not reported to the police, and may therefore be underrepresented in the figures. The total number of injuries includes casualties where the degree of injury has not been specified. Around 30 per cent of the casualties reported in January 2010 belonged to this category. Some people registered in this category may be uninjured, and figures are subject to change.
