§ Mr. DonohoeTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport for each stretch of the motorway network in each of the last two years, how many(a) fatalities and (b) injuries have been reported; how many accidents have been reported; and if he will collate centrally data on the causes of road accidents. [14134]
§ Mr. BowisThe following numbers of personal injury road accidents and resulting casualties were recorded on motorways in Great Britain during 1994 and 1995. These are the most recent two years for which statistics are available. The police do not currently collate accident causation data for the Department, but a review this year will decide whether such information should be collected in the future.
