“…Nationally ( Supplementary Materials and Supplementary Figure S3 ), Tokelau had the lowest DALYs in both 1990 (16 [ 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 ]) and 2019 (10 [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 ]). In 1990, China had the highest DALYs (13,739,515 [11,907,510–18,430,633]).…”

“…For example, in Spain, RIs only cost 0.04% of the GDP [ 16 ]. In China, Tan et al estimated the economic burden of RIs to be 72.6 billion USD for the whole country in 2017, accounting for 0.6% of the GDP for all nations [ 17 ]. In Iran, in 2013, the economic cost of RIs accounted for 6.64% of the gross national income (39 billion), far above the global average [ 18 ].…”

(1) Background: Understanding occurrence can help formulate effective preventative laws and regulations. However, the most recent global burden and road injuries (RIs) trends have not been reported. This study reports the burden of RIs globally from 1990 to 2019. (2) Methods: RIs data were downloaded from the Global Burden of Disease 2019. Incidence, deaths, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) described the trend and burden of RIs. We calculated age-standardized rates (ASRs) and estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) for the above indexes to evaluate the temporal trend of RIs. We evaluated the social-demographic index (SDI) with epidemiological RI parameters and reported proportions of age-standardized rates due to RI. (3) Results: In 2019, the global incidence of RIs reached 103.2 million. The EAPC of RI incidence increased, whereas deaths and DALYs decreased. Age-standardized incident rate (ASIR) was highest in low-middle SDI regions, age-standardized death rate (ASDR) was high in middle SDI regions, and age-standardized DALYs increased in low SDI regions. The highest accident rates were found in those aged 20–24 years old. Cyclist injuries were the leading RIs (34%), though pedestrian and motor vehicle accidents were the leading cause of death (37.4%, 37.6%) and DALYs (35.7%, 32.3%), respectively. (4) Conclusions: Over the past 30 years, RIs incidence increased annually, though death and DALY rates decreased. RIs places a considerable burden on public health in low SDI countries. Data should be used to develop and implement effective measures to reduce the burden of RIs.

“…The total economic losses of traffic collisions in China were estimated to be 72.6 billion USD in 2017, which was equivalent to 0.60% of the GDP of China. 44 The overall economic losses caused by road traffic collisions are beyond imagination. The more serious the injury, the higher the unit economic loss.…”

“…The annual comprehensive economic losses of road collisions in the United States, United Kingdom, Sweden, Germany, Australia and India have been estimated [34,35]. A comprehensive model was proposed in our previously published research to evaluate the economic loss of road traffic crashes in China based on the data obtained from official Chinese agencies [36]. The economic losses caused by road collisions include medical costs, lost productivity, travel delay time cost, legal and court costs, insurance costs, and property damage.…”

Approximately 1.35 million people lose their lives due to road traffic collisions worldwide per year. However, the variation of road safety depending on the deployment of Autonomous Vehicles (AV), Intelligent Roads (IR), and Vehicle-to-Vehicle technology (V2V) is largely unknown. In this analysis, a bottom-up analytical framework was developed to evaluate the safety benefits of avoiding road injuries and reducing crash-related economic costs from the deployment of AVs, IRs, and V2Vs in China in 26 deployment scenarios from 2020 to 2050. The results indicate that compared with only deploying AVs, increasing the availability of IRs and V2V while reducing the deployment of fully AVs can achieve larger safety benefits in China. Increasing the deployment of V2V while reducing the deployment of IRs can sometimes achieve similar safety benefits. The deployment of AVs, IRs, and V2V plays different roles in achieving safety benefits. The large-scale deployment of AVs is the foundation of reducing traffic collisions; the construction of IRs would determine the upper limit of reducing traffic collisions, and the readiness of connected vehicles would influence the pace of reducing traffic collisions, which should be designed in a coordinated manner. Only six synergetic scenarios with full equipment of V2V can meet the SDG 3.6 target for reducing casualties by 50% in 2030 compared to 2020. In general, our results highlight the importance and the potential of the deployment of AVs, IRs, and V2V to reduce road fatalities and injuries. To achieve greater and faster safety benefits, the government should prioritize to the deployment of IRs and V2V. The framework developed in this study can provide practical support for decision-makers to design strategies and policies on the deployment of AVs and IRs, which can also be applied in other countries.
