Six men and four women were killed in road traffic accidents last month. Five were car drivers, one was a car passenger, one was a motorcyclist, one was a moped rider, one was a cyclist, and one was a pedestrian.

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 34 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.
