Road traffic collisions

The report covers the most recent year for which a complete set of data is available, and contains a summary for each district.

Analysis shows that casualty types with a slower pace of reduction were motorcyclists, young car drivers and casualties on rural roads, with speed limits of 50mph and over.

The ‘Road Safety Partnership Casualty Report 2008' provides an overview of casualty trends within the partnership area – the geographical county of Derbyshire including Derby City.

Evidence based on personal injury collisions led to five main casualty reduction priorities on which the partnership will focus it’s activities, campaigns, publicity and enforcement. These are:

• Vulnerable road users (children, pedal cyclists, pedestrians)
• Motorcycle casualties
• Problem routes
• Work related casualties
• Young drivers.
