EU road fatalities for 2021
The European Commission has published preliminary figures on road fatalities for 2021 which show an estimated 19,800 people
were killed in road crashes last year. This was an increase of 1,000 deaths (+5 per cent) on 2020, but still represents almost
3,000 (-13 per cent) fewer fatalities compared to the pre-pandemic period in 2019.
