The table below provides the number of cyclists killed in a road traffic accident on public roads in a) Redcar, b) the North East of England, and c) Great Britain.
Year | Redcar constituency | North East England | Great Britain |
2010 | 0 | 4 | 111 |
2011 | 3 | 7 | 107 |
2012 | 0 | 6 | 118 |
2013 | 0 | 6 | 109 |
2014 | 0 | 3 | 113 |
2015 | 0 | 1 | 100 |
The Department does not hold data for Northern Ireland, therefore the table includes statistics for Great Britain rather than the United Kingdom.
These statistics come from police reported data on personal injury accidents on the public highway. The Department does not collect information about accidents that were on private roads, car parks or off-road.
