Rider casualties by region: every police force area in Britain (2025)

Motorcyclist and cyclist casualties for every police force area in Britain, with the worst numbered road in each one.

This is the regional companion to our main data page. It splits the Department for Transport's 2025 STATS19 figures by police force area, so you can see how many motorcyclists and cyclists were hurt where you ride, and which numbered road in each area saw the most harm.

KSI means killed or seriously injured, the measure road safety professionals use most often.

The same caveats apply as on the main page. Busy areas and long roads appear high partly because of how much traffic they carry, these are counts rather than rates per mile travelled, and police data undercounts non-fatal rider casualties because plenty of spills never get reported.

Journalists and riders can link straight to a specific area using the anchor links in the list below.

Methodology

Figures are computed from the DfT's road casualty statistics casualty and collision files for 2025 (data.dft.gov.uk road-accidents-safety-data), the final release. Casualties are assigned to the first road of the collision. Roads without a number, including unclassified and C roads, are excluded. Severity is as reported by the police and hasn't been adjusted.
