NB:
1. Some figures for 2003 and earlier years
may have been revised slightly from those published
previously due to late returns, or due to late corrections
being made to returns that had been received earlier.
2. Although records of the numbers of "serious
injury" and "slight injury"
casualties began in 1950, records of the numbers
of injury road
accidents did not begin until 1970.
