New datasets from Israel Central Bureau of Statistics
388. Road Accidents with Casualties, 2003
387. Road Accidents with Casualties, 2004
The Central Bureau of Statistics builds annual accident files from Israel
Police's current report of road accidents. The Traffic Police records every
accident with casualties and later on, updates it with data from hospitals and
other sources. The whole system of reporting road accidents is now being
reinvestigated by a public committee established for this purpose. An accident
record contains the time and place of occurrence, including road conditions,
major factors leading to the accident and its severity, description of casualties
and details concerning the vehicles and drivers involved, excluding identifying
data. For accidents occurring on urban roads, the locality code, street code and
house # are listed as well. For inter-urban roads, the road, road section and
kilometer are listed. As of 2003, a few geographical identifiers have been
added for both the place of accident and the residence locality of the involved
persons. An index of road sections and road codes for these years is available
in a separate file. An accident (case) record consists of one line per accident and a
variable number of lines for vehicles and for involved persons who can be injured
persons, drivers in the involved vehicles or both. ( N=18,288 accidents in 2003 and
18,266 in 2004).
382. Traffic Counts on non-Urban Roads, 1999-2004
The source of this 6 years' data is the traffic counts carried out by the Central
Bureau of Statistics by means of mechanical counters installed on non-urban
roads, which measure the traffic passing over a certain road section. .
Motorcycles and motor-scooters are not counted. The counts are carried out
once every year, for a week each time. The counts are represented by date, day
of the week and hour. Holiday, and holiday eve and intermediate days of
holidays (Hol Hamoe'd) are indicated. This data is used for road and safety
planning. When related to accidents data on the same road parts and junctions,
they are used for estimating the traffic safety of each road part. ISDC holdings
include annual traffic counts on non-urban roads from 1983 on. See datasets
