- Rates use published values. Rounding limits comparisons; these values have not been recomputed.
- Coverage 1980The historical-series workbook displays every accident rate as a whole number. For 26 years between 1980 and 2013 it also stores decimals it does not display; MorisLens shows the rates as displayed and does not recompute them from the mixed-scope population series.
- Coverage 2004As from August 2004 most non-injury road traffic accidents are reported only to insurance companies, not to the police; no breakdown of non-injury accidents by age group or sex exists.
