Motor Vehicle Crashes in New Zealand 2006 released
The
Ministry of Transport is pleased to announce the release of
Motor
Vehicle Crashes in New Zealand 2006.
Each year,
the Ministry produces an annual statistical statement on
road
crashes in New Zealand, providing a summary of when,
where and how road
crashes happen, and the road users who
were involved.
As well as road crash statistics, it
includes national hospital, breath
and blood alcohol and
comparative international statistics which relate
to road
crashes. There is also a section that provides statistics
from
the Ministry's annual surveys of safety belt, child
restraint and cycle
helmet use, and vehicle speed
surveys. Another short section presents
tables that show
the number of licensed drivers by age group, and the
size
of the New Zealand vehicle fleet.
The publication is
available on the Ministry of Transport
