Such statistics offer the basics of state traffic policy and help to increase traffic safety.

The statistics contain detailed information on accidents, the vehicles and people involved, so that structures of the accident can be better understood. This comprehensive understanding of the circumstances can be crucial for future security measures in road traffic. Further details about the accident and the investigation are expected as soon as the police have completed their investigations.
