The traffic accident statistics provide data on the number of accidents, the people involved, casualties, the causes of accidents and the severity of the consequences of accidents. This enables the production of an accident situation report (assessment of the local and national accident situation). The results of the traffic accident statistics form an essential basis for gaining knowledge about the accident situation and its development
