Introduction and general information Land Transport New Zealand provides information on road safety to its stakeholders and the public. It also has responsibility for promoting safety and sustainability in land transport, among a variety of other functions. This road safety report is an example of information supplied by Land Transport New Zealand. This report helps identify road safety issues in Masterton District area ( the district ) by presenting tables or graphs of: numbers and trends in reported crashes and casualties characteristics and types of crashes and casualties factors contributing to crashes locations with bad crash records characteristics of crashes on local authority roads The information is intended to assist road controlling authorities, the New Zealand Police and others in evaluating the safety performance of the road network in Masterton District. Comparison with other cities, districts or regions elsewhere in the country is included. Researchers, students, and organisations with an interest in road safety will also find the information useful. Source of crash information This report uses data from Land Transport New Zealand s crash database. This database includes all crashes involving injury and non injury for which Police reports have been completed and forwarded to Land Transport New Zealand. Mostly five-year data ( to 7) has been used, but -year data (998 to 7) has been used to analyse trends. Local authority peer groups Traffic crash patterns and features for an area can depend on the traffic and roading characteristics of that area. The most useful comparisons are made with other areas or authorities with similar characteristics, rather than with the whole country. The data for the city is compared with a peer group of similar local authorities (Group D) along with data for all New Zealand. The peer group used for comparison with Masterton District is Group D which consists of provincial towns and hinterland. (Population - 75 and/or rural crashes greater than 55 percent). Local authorities included in this group are listed in Figure.. Introduction and general information
Definitions of urban and rural Data has been separated for urban and rural (open) roads through this report because each has a distinctly different pattern of crashes. In this report urban roads are defined as all those with a speed limit of 7 km/h or less. Definition of statistically significant A number of graphs include a comparison between the road controlling authority, all New Zealand and a similar peer group. These graphs can include an indication as to whether the difference is statistically significant. For the purposes of this report statistically significant means that a difference of this size is unlikely to be due to chance. Significance is noted at the 5% level (P <.5), this means that the observed result would occur by chance in only in similar situations. Road user compliance data The Ministry of Transport collects information on road user compliance with traffic law. This information includes speed surveys, occupant restraint use surveys and cycle helmet use surveys. Information about these surveys is available on Ministry of Transport web site. The appropriate web addresses are as follows: Open road speed Urban speed http://www.transport.govt.nz/speed/ http://www.transport.govt.nz/speed/ Safety belts Cycle helmets http://www.transport.govt.nz/belts-index/ http://www.transport.govt.nz/cycle-helmets-7-/ The information is also distributed quarterly in the Ministry of Transport publication Road safety progress. The Ministry of Transport also conducts public attitude surveys. These have been undertaken annually since 99. They evaluate attitudes to road safety issues, primarily alcohol-impaired driving and speed. Surveys are carried out in May and June of each year by trained interviewers who conduct interviews with respondents in their homes. The sample is chosen to be representative of the New Zealand adult population, and includes men and women aged 5 and over from towns, cities and rural areas throughout New Zealand. The results of these surveys are available from: http://www.transport.govt.nz/public-attitudes-index/ Introduction and general information
General explanatory notes. Crash and casualty information in this report generally includes data for both local roads and state highways. Some tables and charts can separate this information, however figures 8. 8.6 provide information for local roads only.. Crash and casualty rates are based on 7 populations estimates updated from the 6 census, traffic flows from the year 5, and the average of five year crash data ( 7).. Traffic flows are based on Road Asset Maintenance and Management (RAMM) data from December. Caution should be exercised when comparing traffic flow based crash rates in one authority with those of other authorities. Different road controlling authorities update flow data in RAMM at different times and some data will be more up to date than other data.. With four to five categories of road for each local authority, some categories will only have short lengths of road. This may cause significant variation in the calculated crash and casualty rates. 5. The crash numbers include all those within the road controlling authority. The crash numbers used in the crash rate section can, however, vary slightly from the remainder of the document as only on road crashes can be used. These are crashes on roads that have traffic volume information recorded. Crashes that occurred in car parks, reserves, beaches etc are excluded. 6. The severity of a crash is determined as the most severely injured casualty in the crash. Injury severity is classified as fatal, serious, or minor as follows: Fatal: Serious: Minor: Injuries that result in death within days of a crash. Fractures, concussion, internal injuries, crushing, severe cuts and lacerations, severe general shock necessitating medical treatment, and any injury involving removal to and detention in hospital. Injuries which are not serious but which require first aid, or cause discomfort or pain to the person injured, eg sprains and bruises. 7. Ethnicity of road users involved in crashes can now be recorded on traffic crash reports, although some reports may not include this data. Figures.5 and.6 shows the ethnicity of casualties, where known. Ethnicity is divided into five different groups. Only data for to 7 is available. The graph includes all casualties irrespective of culpability. NOTE: Ethnicity data should be treated with cautions as the data can be considered subjective and incomplete Introduction and general information
8. For the licence status grouping in Figures.7 and.8 the no/wrong licence group includes drivers who have never held a licence or have an expired or wrong class licence. This graph includes all drivers irrespective of injury or culpability. 9.

Crash reporting rates The ratio of reported serious injuries can be assessed by comparing seriously injured casualty numbers from Police crash reports to hospital admissions, given that a serious injury is generally one requiring hospital attention. Figure. below indicates the serious injury reporting rate for each region. Figure.

Figure. Social cost of crashes in Masterton District in 7 Local roads State highways Total urban rural urban rural Masterton District $6.75 $. $.7 $. $.5 New Zealand $,69.8 $89.7 $.6 $,5. $,57.8 Note: Crash costs are in $ millions The social costs of a road crash and the associated injuries include a number of different elements: Loss of life and life quality Loss of output due to temporary incapacitation Medical costs Legal costs Property damage costs The average value of a loss of life due to a road crash is estimated by the amount of money the New Zealand population would be willing to pay for a safety improvement that would result in the expected avoidance of one premature death. This is the willingness to pay based value of statistical life or VOSL. The VOSL was established at $ million in 99. This has been indexed to the average hourly earnings (ordinary time) to express the value in current dollars. The updated VOSL is $.9 million (in June 7 dollars). Based on several international and New Zealand studies on VOSL, the average loss of life quality for permanent impairments due to a serious and a minor injury were estimated to be % and.% of the VOSL respectively. Crash rates can vary due to reporting rates. These are adjusted on a regional basis in this report by comparing with hospitalisation rates. The other social cost components are estimated based on a number of studies conducted during the early to mid-99s and are updated for price changes by indexing to an appropriate price index. For a detail discussion on this, please refer to The social cost of road crashes and injuries: June 7 update, available at the Ministry of Transport s website: http://www.transport.govt.nz/socialcost/social-cost-june-7-update[].pdf The average social cost per reported crash (in June 7 dollars) are estimated at: Rural fatal crash $,6, Rural serious crash $75, Rural minor crash $88, Urban fatal crash $,59, Urban serious crash $66, Urban minor crash $79, These values include an allowance for non-reported injury crashes, and the totals in Fig.. also include an allowance for non injury crashes. 5 Crash rates and costs
