Police recorded road collisions: 2024
Data on the severity of injury and type of road user for 2024. The focus of this release is on police recorded road collisions in 2024 with a brief overview of their casualties. A complete analysis of road casualties in 2024 will be published in our Reported road casualties bulletin on 27 November 2025. This release covers 2024 data which was provisionally published on 21 May 2025. In previous years, quarter 4 collisions data have been published as part of a detailed annual collisions publication in the summer. However, due to a delay in data submissions from one police force, we published the quarter 4 and annual 2024 data as ‘provisional’ in May 2025. These delays have since been resolved, and we are now able to publish a more detailed statistical bulletin on collisions in 2024.
Given the increased interest in collisions data since the roll out of the 20mph default speed limit on 17 September 2023, we published a Chief Statistician’s update on ‘understanding road collisions and casualty statistics’ on 24 May 2024. All the underlying data is published on StatsWales, and our road collisions dashboard. This includes additional detail on collisions and casualties by geographical area, speed limit, severity and vehicle type. Detailed quality information is published in the accompanying quality report. This release includes the first full calendar year of data since the introduction of the 20mph default speed limit.
All the underlying data is published on StatsWales, and our road collisions dashboard. This includes additional detail on collisions and casualties by geographical area, speed limit, severity and vehicle type.
Author’s note: This release provides a 2024 overview of police-recorded road collisions in Wales, including data publication timelines, methodological notes, and links to further detailed statistics.
