Details
This factsheet presents the latest statistics for e-scooter casualties in reported road collisions including:
- monthly trends
- who is injured (age and sex)
- other casualties involved in accidents with e-scooters
- a breakdown by police force area
Data covers the period to end 2024, and is considered final.
At this point, it has not been possible to included casualty rates for e-scooters, due to a lack of robust data on e-scooter trips or mileage. While e-scooters were added as a new mode in the department’s National Travel Survey in 2021, a low number of trips was recorded. A report on the recording of e-scooter trips in the NTS was published in 2024. The department will keep this data under review with the intention of presenting estimates of e-scooter trips, and casualty rates, when we have confidence in the quality of this data.
