This list of countries by traffic-related death rate shows the annual number of road fatalities per capita per year, per number of motor vehicles, and per vehicle-km in some countries in the year the data was collected.
Only 28 countries, representing 449 million people (seven percent of the world's population), have laws that address the five risk factors of speed, drunk driving, helmets, seat-belts and child restraints.[citation needed] Over a third of road traffic deaths in low- and middle-income countries are among pedestrians and cyclists. However, less than 35 percent of low- and middle-income countries have policies in place to protect these road users.[3]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.[3]
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.[3]
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).[3]

Today the European Commission is publishing preliminary figures on road fatalities for 2022. Around 20,600 people were killed in road crashes last year, a 3% increase on 2021 as traffic levels recovered after the pandemic. This represents however 2,000 fewer fatalities (-10%) compared with the pre-pandemic year 2019. The EU and UN target is to halve the number of road deaths by 2030.
EU-wide, road deaths in 2022 rose by 3% on the previous year, not least as traffic levels recovered levels following the pandemic. Importantly, many of the gains achieved during the COVID-19 period (including a fall of 17% between 2019 and 2020) have not been lost. Compared with 2019, the number of deaths in 2022 fell by 10%.
However, progress has been very uneven between Member States. The largest decreases, of more than 30%, were reported in Lithuania and Poland, with Denmark also recording a 23% fall. By contrast, over the last three years, the number of road deaths in countries such as Ireland, Spain, France, Italy, the Netherlands, and Sweden has remained rather stable or has risen. (It is important to note that this is based on preliminary and often partial data.)
Based on available data for 2021 (detailed 2022 data is not yet available) across the EU, 52% of road traffic fatalities occurred on rural roads, versus 39% in urban areas and 9% on motorways. Men accounted for three out of four road deaths (78%). Car occupants (drivers and passengers) accounted for 45% of all road deaths while pedestrians represented 18%, users of powered two-wheelers (motorbikes and mopeds) 19% and cyclists 9% of total fatalities.
Within urban areas, the pattern is however very different with vulnerable road users (pedestrians, cyclists and users of powered two-wheelers) representing just under 70% of total fatalities. Urban road user fatalities occur overwhelmingly in crashes involving cars and trucks and thus highlight the need to improve the protection of vulnerable road users.
While the increased share of cycling in the mobility mix in many Member States is extremely welcome, a serious cause for concern is the trend in the number of cyclists killed on EU roads. This is the only road user group not to see a significant drop in fatalities over the last decade, which is notably due to a persistent lack of well-equipped infrastructure. In 2022, for example, preliminary figures from France show a 30% increase in cycling fatalities compared with 2019.
The 2022 figures are based on preliminary data for most countries and are subject to changes when the final data are released in autumn 2023. Estimates for 2022 cover the whole year and all roads and refer to deaths within 30 days but for the following countries they are based on partial data: Germany and Greece (each 11 months), Belgium and Hungary (each 9 months), Spain (rural roads), Netherlands (partial data; also, police-registered fatalities are under-reported by around 10-15%), Portugal (fatalities within 24 hours), Switzerland (6 months). No data for Liechtenstein for 2022.
Austria: 40 road deaths per million inhabitants in 2021, which is below the EU average of 44. The number of deaths fell to its lowest recorded level in 2020 and then increased by 4% in 2021. Overall, that represents a 14% decrease in 2021 in relation to the pre-pandemic year 2019.
Belgium: 43 road deaths per million inhabitants in 2021, which is slightly below the EU average. The number of fatalities dropped to its lowest level on record and remained at virtually the same level in 2021. Between 2019 and 2021, the number fell by 23%, faster than the EU average of -13%.
Bulgaria: 81 road deaths per million inhabitants in 2021, which is the second highest rate in the EU. The number of fatalities increased by 21% in 2021 having fallen substantially the previous year to reach the lowest number on record. The figure for 2021 represents an 11% drop in relation to the pre-pandemic year 2019.
Croatia: 72 road deaths per million inhabitants in 2021, which is well above the EU average and the fourth highest rate among the EU-27. After dropping to the lowest number on record in 2020, road deaths increased by 23% in 2021. That represents a 2% decrease between 2019 and 2021, well below the EU average of 13% fewer deaths.
Cyprus*: 50 road deaths per million inhabitants in 2021, which is above the EU average. The number of estimated deaths fell by 13% between 2019 and 2021 to reach the lowest rate on record.
Czechia: 50 road deaths per million inhabitants in 2021, which is above the EU average. Road fatalities rose slightly by 3% compared to 2020 but overall fell by 14% between the pre-pandemic year 2019 and 2021.
Denmark: 23 road deaths per million inhabitants in 2021, which makes it the third best performing country in the EU. The number of road fatalities fell by a notable 17% in 2021 to reach the lowest figure on record. Between 2019 and 2021, the number dropped by 32%, at a considerably faster pace than the EU average fall of 13%.
Estonia*: 41 road deaths per million inhabitants in 2021, which is slightly below the EU average. Following a fall in 2019 and a rise in 2020, road fatalities fell by 7% in 2021. Overall, between 2019 and 2021, the number increased by 6% although compared to the average of the period 2017-2019 (to smooth out annual fluctuations), road deaths fell by 1% in 2021.
Finland: 40 road deaths per million inhabitants in 2021, which is slightly below the EU average. The number of fatalities was unchanged in 2021 following the lowest figure on record in 2019. Accordingly, road deaths increased by 6% between 2019 and 2021, in contrast to the EU average decrease of 13%.
France: 45 road deaths per million inhabitants in 2021, close to the EU average. France registered its lowest number of road fatalities on record in 2020 when the figure dropped by 22%. While fatalities increased by 16% in 2021, the number fell by 9% between the pre-pandemic year 2019 and 2021.
Germany: 31 road deaths per million inhabitants in 2021, which is significantly below the EU average. The number of road deaths continues to fall, with a new record low in three successive years: 2019, 2020 and again in 2021. Fatalities fell by 6% between 2020 and 2021 while there was a 16% decrease between 2019 and 2021.
Greece: 57 road deaths per million inhabitants in 2021, which is significantly above the EU average. Having recorded the largest downward trend (54%) in the EU over the last decade, road deaths increased by 5% from 2020 to 2021. Compared to the pre-pandemic year 2019, the number fell by 12% in 2021, a similar pace to the EU average.
Hungary: 56 road deaths per million inhabitants in 2021, which is significantly above the EU average. Following a 25% reduction in 2020, Hungary recorded its lowest number of road fatalities on record. In 2021, the number increased by 18%. Overall, this represents a 10% decrease between 2019 and 2021.
Ireland: 27 road deaths per million inhabitants in 2021, which is one of the lowest rates in the EU. The estimated number of road fatalities fell between 2020 and 2021 by 6% to reach a record new low. This equates to a 2% decrease compared to the pre-pandemic year 2019.
Italy: 48 road deaths per million inhabitants in 2021, which is slightly above the EU average. The number of fatalities dropped by 25% in 2020 to reach its lowest level on record.
