Statistical background to traffic accidents in Germany

In the Federal Republic of Germany, traffic safety is supported by extensive statistics. This data, as recorded in road traffic accident statistics, serve the extraction of reliable information and form the basis for legislative measures as well as traffic training and road construction projects. The statistics include a wide range of information on accidents, involved and causes of accidents, which is of great importance in the context of transport policy. In 2020, a total of 2.2 million traffic accidents were reported in Germany, which underlines the need for suitable measures to improve traffic safety.

In the run -up to today's accident, several similar incidents have been registered in Munich in the past few days, which makes the current situation all the more worrying. One example is an incident in March 2020 in Maxvorstadt, where a collision between two police dust vehicles led to six injuries, including two seriously injured civil servants. The police's vehicles were on the road with activated blue lights during an assignment.

The fact that traffic accidents take place on both the street and under emergency services illustrates the risks that road users are exposed to. The police appeal to all road users, especially with regard to the increasing number of traffic accidents in the past few weeks, always attentive and forward -looking.
