CHAPTER 4 Historical series • This section presents longer time series of deaths, rates and fatal crashes. Average annual per cent changes over each of three decades are given. There are seven tables : Table 26 Deaths by jurisdiction 1982–2011 Table 27 Deaths by road user 1982–2011 Table 28 Deaths by age group 1982–2011 Table 29 Rates per population by jurisdiction 1982–2011 Table 30 Fatal crashes 1982–2011 Table 31 Population by jurisdiction 1982–2011 Table 32 Population by age group 1982–2011 • Each decade annual deaths have fallen. On an average annual basis, the fall over the last 30 years has been approximately 2.8 per cent per year. Chapter 1 • Annual road deaths 2002 to 2011 • The three largest jurisdictions (New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland) have, over this period, achieved falls of 70 per cent, 60 per cent and 55 per cent respectively. South Australia, Tasmania and the Australian Capital Territory have also achieved significant reductions. The reductions in Western Australia and the Northern Territory have been more modest. • Regarding the type of road use, passenger and pedestrian deaths have decreased over 30 years by 60–70 per cent, the fastest rates. Deaths of all other road user groups have also decreased significantly. • Road users aged 16 years or under currently account for around seven per cent of all deaths. Thirty years ago they accounted for 13 per cent. In contrast, the 40-59 age group now accounts for 27 per cent of all road deaths, compared to 15 per cent 30 years ago. • Over thirty years, as well as over the latest decade, Queensland's and Western Australia's populations have been growing the fastest. The other states have been growing at around 1 per cent per year. • 43 •
