NB: the figures for the latest year are
provisional. The final totals, which will appear
in "Road Accidents Scotland", may differ from the figures
given here, due to (e.g.) late returns and amendments. The
figures for a smaller area could be revised by a few
percent if, for example, data for several accidents in that
area had not been added to the Scottish Executive road
accident statistics database by the time that the
statistics for this bulletin were extracted.
It must also be remembered that there can be quite
large percentage year-to-year fluctuations in the figures
for areas within Scotland, particularly for those with
lower numbers. Therefore, the annual average for the latest
five years may be a better guide to the "normal" level of
the numbers than the figures for the latest single
year.
