Fatality index
Published rates retain their own unit; the vehicle denominator is a vehicle register, not distance travelled.
A whole series spans its indicator's published years; a breakdown spans the years it is published for, and opens on the latest of them. A missing year stays unavailable, and a requested year is kept even when it is not published.
