there are large disparities in road traffic death rates between regions. the risk of dying as a result of a road traffic injury is highest in the african region (26.6 per 100 000 population), and lowest in the european region (9.3 per 100 000).









































half of the world's road traffic deaths occur among motorcyclists (23 percent), pedestrians (22 percent) and cyclists (5 percent) – i.e., "vulnerable road users" – with 31 percent of deaths among car occupants and the remaining 19 percent among unspecified road users.

the average rate was 17.4 per 100,000 people. low-income countries now have the highest annual road traffic fatality rates, at 24.1 per 100,000, while the rate in high-income countries is lowest, at 9.2 per 100,000.









































seventy-four percent of road traffic deaths occur in middle-income countries, which account for only 53 percent of the world's registered vehicles. in low-income countries it is even worse. only one percent of the world's registered cars produce 16 percent of world's road traffic deaths. this indicates that these countries bear a disproportionately high burden of road traffic deaths relative to their level of motorization.
