The CARE database brings together the disaggregate details of road accidents and casualties across Europe, by combining the national accident databases that are maintained by all EU member states. Access to the CARE database is restricted, however, so it is important that a comprehensive range of publications based on these data be accessible to the general public. This process was begun in the SafetyNet project that was carried out between 2004 and 2008, and the concept of the Annual Statistical Report (ASR) was developed. By 2008 one edition was being annually prepared and published. The Annual Statistical Report is a document consisting of a large number of Tables and Figures with data retrieved from the CARE database, which are not further analysed or commented. A Glossary with the definitions of the variables and values used in the Annual Statistical Report are included at the end of the report. (Author/publisher)
