Fatality Trends

Daily Fatalities Gap
i
Shows the number of days between each fatality incident. Higher bars indicate longer periods of safer road conditions - the goal is to increase these gaps over time.

Higher bars indicate longer periods without road fatalities

Cumulative Road Deaths
i
Shows the accumulation of road fatalities over time. Steeper slopes indicate periods with higher fatality rates, while flatter sections represent safer periods.

Steeper slopes indicate periods with higher fatality rates

Temporal Patterns

Monthly Fatality Distribution
i
Shows how road fatalities are distributed across months of the year, helping identify seasonal patterns and high-risk periods.

Identifies seasonal patterns in road fatalities

Day of Week Analysis
i
Shows how fatalities are distributed across days of the week, helping identify high-risk days for road travel and potential factors like weekend recreational driving.

Helps identify high-risk days for road travel

Geographic & Demographic Analysis

Regional Distribution
i
Shows how road fatalities are distributed across different regions of New Zealand, helping target safety initiatives to high-risk areas.

Identifies high-risk regions for targeted safety interventions

Age & Gender Analysis
i
Shows the distribution of road fatalities by age group and gender, helping identify demographic groups at higher risk.

Identifies demographic groups at higher risk

Risk Factor Analysis

Vehicle Type Distribution
i
Shows the distribution of road fatalities by vehicle type involved, identifying high-risk vehicle categories and potential areas for safety improvements.

Identifies high-risk vehicle categories

Time of Day Heatmap
i
Shows when fatalities occur throughout the day and week, helping identify patterns like rush hour risks or late-night weekend driving hazards.

Identifies high-risk times for road travel

Road Type Distribution
i
Shows how fatalities are distributed across different road types, helping identify which infrastructure types are associated with higher fatality rates.

Identifies high-risk road infrastructure types

Single vs. Multi-Vehicle Crashes
i
Compares the proportion of fatal crashes involving a single vehicle versus multiple vehicles, highlighting different crash patterns that may require different prevention approaches.

Shows distribution of crash configurations
