These statistics present provisional figures for road casualties in Great Britain in 2025, indicating a broad continuation of recent trends. Over the past decade, both the overall number of casualties and fatalities have declined. The number of killed or seriously injured (KSI) casualties has also fallen over the past decade, but at a slower rate.
In reported road collisions in Great Britain in 2025, there were an estimated:
- 1,556 fatalities, a decline of 3% compared to 2024
- 29,910 KSI casualties, an increase of 4% compared to 2024
- 127,870 casualties of all severities, little change compared to 2024
Final annual estimates for 2025 are scheduled for publication in July 2026.
Alongside this publication is an update on engagement with STATS19 data providers and analysts, focusing on the recording of road safety factors and exploring reasons for changes in the use of certain factors compared with the previous contributory factors system.
