Description

Under the Highway Traffic Act (HTA), the Ministry of Transportation (MTO) is required to report annually on motor vehicle collision statistics. The Ontario Road Safety Annual Report (ORSAR) is a comprehensive record of road safety statistics. The primary source of data is collision reports provided by police services. The ORSAR report is organized among seven datasets: * Chapter 1: Provides a synopsis of key road safety statistics such as the total number of traffic fatalities, injuries, collisions, licensed drivers and registered vehicle. * Chapter 2: Highlights traffic fatalities and injuries by severity and characteristics of the road users involved. * Chapter 3: Profiles the types of collisions that occur on Ontario’s roads. * Chapter 4: Identifies the location of collisions in Ontario and provides a breakdown of the various classes of collision, the number of persons killed or injured and the number of motor vehicle registrations by municipality and county. * Chapter 5: Examines the types of vehicles involved in motor vehicle collisions in Ontario. * Chapter 6: Examines vehicles of special interest, including motorcycles, school buses, large trucks, snowmobiles, off-road vehicles and bicycles. * Chapter 7: Presents conviction, offence and suspension data related to motor vehicle use in Ontario. Convictions are summarized by legislation and conviction type.
