Official Statistics: Linking STATS19 fatalities and ONS death registration data

Imported from official source

This report links STATS19 police-reported road fatalities with Office for National Statistics (ONS) death registrations data for England and Wales, primarily to validate the STATS19 data on those killed in road collisions, that is to assess how well STATS19 captures fatal road incidents.

This represents the first stage of what is planned to be further work to compare reported road deaths in STATS19 with death registrations data, and should be treated as an initial feasibility study which it is hoped will be developed further.

The original report was published in September 2025 based on data to 2023, and has subsequently been updated with data to 2024 in September 2026. the previous version of the work has been retained for reference purposes.

This is an extract. The publication continues at the source.
