<p>There is no robust academic evidence to indicate the lack of targets in the UK
has contributed to the lack of progress in road casualty reduction since 2010. There
has been a stalling of progress in road casualty reductions across many economically
advanced countries, affecting countries with targets (e.g. Sweden and the Netherlands)
as well as the UK where there is no target.</p><p> </p><p>The KSI statistics for road
accident casualties between 2007 and 2016 can be found in the table below along with
a comparison to the 2010 – 2014 average. The KSI figures for 2017 will be published
later this year.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Year</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Killed</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Seriously
