Question 7.

To what extent do you agree or disagree with the following statements regarding the level of timeliness, detail and frequency of the reported road safety statistics?

The current frequency of annual and mid-year road safety statistics meets my needs
I would be happy for road safety statistics to be published as a dataset with no annual report, if they were more frequent (monthly)
I would find more frequent data, accompanied by an annual report useful

Question 8.

With regards to datasets, how likely are the following statements to meet your needs?

More frequent, less detailed datasets – this would provide more timely data but might be less accurate, however a clear explanation of the implication would be provided.
Annual, more detailed release of datasets – this would provide less timely data but might be a more accurate reflection of trends. This would be like the current format of the reported road safety statistics dataset Great Britain.
