Abstract
This article examines the circumstances of road casualties over the period 2012–2021 in Greater Manchester in North West England. In particular, the demographics of road casualties, the nature of the road activity involved, and the nature of the roads where the casualties occurred are examined. Over the period studied there was an overall decrease in road casualties, similar to that of Great Britain overall, and there were 1.55 times as many male as female road casualties. The largest decrease in road casualties by age group was amongst those aged less than 18. The majority of road casualties occurred on urban roads with a speed limit of 21–30 mph. There was a strong relationship between age group and the rate of road casualties for pedestrians, driver/riders, and passengers.
