9 killed in road traffic accidents

In March 2012, 39 persons were severely injured and 9 persons were killed in road traffic accidents, according to preliminary figures. A total of 398 accidents were reported to the police.

The average for March over the last 10 years is 53 severely injured and 15 fatalities. In March 2011, 26 persons were severely injured and 12 persons were killed in 383 accidents.

Six men and three women were killed in road traffic accidents last month. Eight were drivers of cars and one was a car passenger.

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 33 per cent of the casualties reported so far this year belonged to this category. Some people registered in this category may be uninjured, and figures are subject to change.
