Vehicles involved in casualty accidents by type of vehicle
Published observations with their sources, definitions and missing values.
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.

- Compare vehicle types on one shared scale from zero, or switch to separate panels. The default period covers published values; earlier empty source cells are outside this view. Missing values within the period remain gaps.
- Counts only. An involvement rate per 1,000 registered vehicles of each type is not shown: the categories of vehicles involved (for example 'motor/auto cycle', 'private car', 'taxi car') do not match the categories of the vehicle register one to one, so no denominator can be assigned without a judgement the publisher has not made.
- Discrepancy 2020D14: in the historical series Table 3, the vehicle-type rows sum to 3024, 3765 and 4611 in 2020, 2021 and 2022 respectively, against printed totals of 3578, 3020 and 3250. Digest 2022-2024 Table 26 prints different 2022 values (private car 1404; motor/auto cycle 1162). MorisLens serves the historical series' published values (decision E11). These years must not be interpreted as a verified partition or an unexplained peak.
