answer text <p>The Department does not hold information on how long drivers in reported road accidents held their licence for. The Department collects data on personal injury road accidents reported to the police, including contributory factors which the police identify when they attend the scene. This does not assign blame for the accident but gives an indication of factors the attending officer thought contributed to the accident. The following table shows the number and proportion of accidents where the contributory factor ‘learner or inexperienced driver/rider’ was reported by severity for England and Wales in the years 2013 to 2017.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td colspan="13"><p><strong>Reported accidents<sup>1</sup> where contributory factor 'Learner or inexperienced driver/rider' reported by severity and country, 2013 to 2017</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td colspan="2"><p>Fatal accidents</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td colspan="2"><p>Serious accidents</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td colspan="2"><p>Slight accidents</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td colspan="2"><p>All accidents</p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>Number</p></td><td><p>Per cent</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>Number</p></td><td><p>Per cent</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>Number</p></td><td><p>Per cent</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>Number</p></td><td><p>Per cent</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>England</p></td><td><p>2013</p></td><td><p>51</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>743</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>3,373</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>4,167</p></td><td><p>4</p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p>2014</p></td><td><p>36</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>720</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>3,453</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>4,209</p></td><td><p>4</p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p>2015</p></td><td><p>43</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>686</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>3,305</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>4,034</p></td><td><p>4</p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p>2016</p></td><td><p>30</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>690</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>2,767</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>3,487</p></td><td><p>4</p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p>2017</p></td><td><p>32</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>754</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>2,745</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>3,531</p></td><td><p>4</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Wales</p></td><td><p>2013</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>36</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>171</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>209</p></td><td><p>4</p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p>2014</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>49</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>172</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>225</p></td><td><p>4</p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p>2015</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>46</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>146</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>196</p></td><td><p>4</p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p>2016</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>43</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>161</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>206</p></td><td><p>5</p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p>2017</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>47</p></td><td><p>6</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>104</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>155</p></td><td><p>4</p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td colspan="11"><p>1 Includes only accidents where a police officer attended the scene and in which a contributory factor was reported.

answer text <p>The numbers of pedestrians killed in road accidents in Great Britain has increased slightly overall since 2010 (from 405 in 2010 to 448 in 2016). However, there has been some fluctuation in the number of pedestrians killed in the intervening years (for example, in 2013 the number killed was lower than in 2010 at 398).</p><p> </p><p>Earlier this year, the Department extended the cycle safety review to consider ways to improve pedestrian safety. Officials are currently analysing responses to the call for evidence, seeking views on ways to make walking and cycling safer while supporting the Government’s ambition to increase take up and use.</p><p> </p><p>In June the Government announced its intention to deliver a more strategic approach to preventing deaths and serious injuries on our roads. The Department has a two-year action plan to address four priority user groups, including young people and older more vulnerable road users, who are at greater risk of being injured as a pedestrian compared to other age groups.</p><p> </p><p>The refreshed statement will be informed by early lessons from the new road collision investigation pilot - a £480,000 partnership between police forces and the RAC Foundation to trial an innovative approach to road collision investigation, carrying out more in-depth, qualitative analysis of the underlying causes of road safety incidents in order to get a better understanding of what is really causing collisions on UK roads.</p>

answer text <p>The number of people killed in road accidents in the UK has fallen slightly since 2010, from 1,905 in 2010 to 1,860 in 2016. Prior to 2010 there were larger reductions in the numbers of people killed in road accidents in the UK (in 2000 3,580 people were killed, this reduced to 3,336 by 2005 and to 1,905 by 2010). Many other countries with good road safety records have also experienced a slow-down in the rate of casualty reduction since 2010.</p><p> </p><p>In June the Government announced its intention to deliver a more strategic approach to preventing deaths and serious injuries on our roads. The Department for Transport has a two-year action plan to address four priority user groups: young people, rural road users, motorcyclists and older and more vulnerable users, according to a refreshed road safety strategy. The refreshed statement will be informed by early lessons from the new road collision investigation pilot - a £480,000 partnership between police forces and the RAC Foundation to trial an innovative approach to road collision investigation, carrying out more in-depth, qualitative analysis of the underlying causes of road safety incidents in order to get a better understanding of what is really causing collisions on UK roads.</p>

answer text <p>All drivers must be able to meet the required visual acuity and visual field standards, which includes being able to read a number plate from 20 metres. Drivers are also legally responsible for notifying the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) at any time of a change in their health or vision which may affect their ability to meet the appropriate standards.</p><p> </p><p>The Government fully supports the NHS’ recommendation that adults should have their eyes tested every two years. The DVLA is carrying out an online awareness campaign highlighting the importance of good vision for safe driving. Also, in 2016, the DVLA changed its driving licence application forms to highlight the importance of having regular eyesight tests. The photocard driving licence renewal letter the DVLA sends to drivers is also being amended to include this important message.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The Department has no plans at present to bring forward proposals to amend legislation ON reporting animal deaths on the road. However, the police do advise drivers that, if possible, they should make enquiries to ascertain the owner of domestic animals such as cats, and inform them of the situation. In addition, Rule 286 of The Highway Code also advises drivers to report any accident involving an animal to the police.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The Department for Transport has already highlighted to local highway authorities the importance of scanning deceased dogs and cats found on the highway as part of standard practice. This advice was included in a letter sent in March 2015 to highway authorities in England, outside London. It is the responsibility of each highway authority to determine whether to do so or not based on their own policies and procedures. However, the Department for Transport will look for opportunities to highlight the issue to local authorities.</p> more like this
