<p>The Department for Transport holds information on whether an ‘overloaded or poorly
loaded vehicle or trailer’ is recorded as a contributory factor in reported personal
injury road accidents. In 2017, there were 33 HGVs (1%) involved in accidents in Great
Britain with a contributory factor of ‘overloaded or poorly loaded vehicle or trailer’
recorded by the police attending the scene. The Department does not hold specific
data on whether cargo was moving within the vehicle.</p><p> </p>
