|July 31, 2025
Thousands of casualties were killed and seriously injured on Britain's roads last year
A county famed for its farmland, rural roads and the absence of any motorways was the most lethal place to drive last year.
Provisional casualty figures published by the Department for Transport show there were 1,633 fatalities on British roads in 2024, a slight 1% increase from the previous year.
More than 29,500 people were killed or seriously injured, similar to 2023, and another 99,000 were slightly injured, a 4% fall.
The largest number of fatalities was among drivers and passengers of cars (710), followed by pedestrians (413), and motorcyclists (343).
