Contributory factors

Following the latest STATS19 review, contributory factors (CFs) are being replaced by new road safety factors (RSFs), in many police forces from late 2023 onwards. Consequently, we are presenting the contributory factor data mapped to these new factors alongside the existing tables to aid in the transition to the new approach from next year. For further information see our road safety factors initial analysis.
