How to read this table
Differences between countries allow for an assessment of the scale of road traffic injuries internationally. Comparing rows shows where the number of accidents with casualties is higher or lower in absolute terms. The list contains 44 rows, each representing a separate country. This helps to understand the global picture of incidents and the situation in specific countries, such as Russia or Belgium, over the specified period
What is visible in these numbers
Five highest values: Germany (305.7), Italy (213), Russia (199.4), United Kingdom (160.1), France (67.3). Gap between highest and lowest — 160.9 times. The top five account for 81.5% of the total across all positions — distribution is heavily skewed toward the top
Observations are annual, with 8 periods in the dataset. Of 200 possible values, 200 (100%) are filled — gaps are virtually absent
The same indicator for other periods
These series cannot be stitched together Over the common period 2010 values diverge — Rosstat recalculated the indicator using a revised methodology. They cannot be combined into a single chart: a break would appear at the junction, which did not actually occur
| Indicator for 2010 | here | in the adjacent series | divergence |

| Россия | 199,4 | 199,4 | +0,0 |
