Police Recorded Injury Road Traffic Collision Statistics Northern Ireland 2025

2025 statistics from the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) detail injury road traffic collisions reported to police. The data is collected under STATS20 guidance from the UK Department for Transport, ensuring comparability with Great Britain statistics, and excludes damage-only or non-injury collisions. It provides a standardized record of incidents resulting in casualties.

Use Cases

• Analyzing trends in killed or seriously injured (KSI) casualties based on police-reported statistics.
• Comparing road safety outcomes in Northern Ireland with Great Britain using STATS20-standardized data.
• Mapping collision locations for geospatial analysis of high-risk areas.
• Evaluating the effectiveness of road safety policies by tracking injury collision rates over time.

Strengths

• Data collection follows the standardized STATS20 guidance from the UK Department for Transport.
• Cross-platform presence on multiple data portals signals its importance and official status.
• Explicitly excludes damage-only collisions, focusing analysis on incidents with human impact.

Limitations

• Key metadata such as row count, specific column names, and dataset size is unknown across all sources.
• Conflicting freshness: one source lists a last updated date of 2026-04-22, which is a future date relative to the 2025 title, creating a temporal inconsistency.
• Documentation gaps exist, as no detailed schema or variable definitions are provided in the input.
