International road safety comparisons—annual

This report presents road deaths and road death rates for Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) nations and Australia. The rates allow for a comparison of Australia’s road safety performance with that of other OECD nations by accounting for the differing levels of population, motorisation and distances travelled. The latest available international data is for 2023.

Fatalities per 100,000 population is the measure specified in the UN Sustainable Development Goals (Indicator 3.61) to monitor road crash trauma.
