Senator O’Brien
asked the Minister representing the Minister for Local Government, Territories and Roads, upon notice, on 5 October 2005:
(1) Since 21 June 2004, how many road accidents have occurred in Australia.
(2) How many of these accidents resulted in one or more fatalities.
(3) How many of these accidents resulted in one or more persons suffering some form of permanent injury.
(4) What is the estimated total cost of these accidents.
Senator Ian Campbell (Minister for the Environment and Heritage)
—The Minister for Local Government, Territories and Roads has provided the following answer to the honourable senator’s question:
(1) The ATSB only collects data on road accidents involving fatalities and serious injuries.
(2) From 22 June 2004 to 31 August 2005, there were 1730 fatal road crashes in Australia resulting in 1913 fatalities.
(3) Data on persons seriously injured in road crashes are currently available up to June 2003 only. The ATSB has no data on levels of impairment due to injury in a road crash.
(4) The ATSB has no data on the cost of these road accidents. Only estimates of annual costs of road crashes are available. The latest available estimate is $15 billion for 1996 (1996 dollars) by the Bureau of Transport Economics.
