Road-traffic deaths
Tier B· ReputableEstimated deaths from road-traffic injuries per 100,000 people. Reference year is 2019 (WHO's last global estimate) — see caveat.
100 = lowest road-death rate (best), 0 = highest
Mixed reference years (2013–2019). This metric uses each country's most recent available year, so countries are not all measured in the same year — cross-country comparison is weakened. Each row shows its own reference year.
How this score is built
Road-traffic death rate — estimated deaths from road injuries per 100,000 people — World Bank indicator SH.STA.TRAF.P5 (WHO Global Status Report on Road Safety). Direction is higher_worse; normalized with min–max and inverted, so 100 = lowest road-death rate.
⚠️ ~2019 reference year. Most values come from WHO's 2019 Global Status Report (its last global road-safety estimate), so this is a pre-pandemic snapshot — hence Tier B; a few microstates have earlier reference years. It is a real, dated WHO estimate, not a current figure, and the year is shown per country. The raw rate is shown.
