Page 4 <br /> <br />For primary collision type, broadside collisions continue to be the number one collisions type. Run off <br />the road crashes (almost all of the hit object collisions involve a vehicle leaving the roadway) are the <br />second most common. Run off the road collisions (Hit-object) were the number one collision type in <br />both 2020 and 2021. Typically broadside collisions are greater in number. <br />Out of the 340 collisions in the City, approximately <br />56% involve a second moving vehicle. Vehicles hitting <br />an object or parked car represents 31% of collisions, <br />and about 10% of the collisions have a vehicle <br />involved with a bicycle or pedestrian (down from 14% <br />last year). <br />The highest degree <br />of injury reported in <br />each collision is <br />categorized by five <br />levels (fatal, severe, other visible injury, complaint of pain and <br />property damage only). The percentage of collisions with property <br />damage and other visible injury decreased while complaint of pain <br />increased when compared to last year. <br /> <br />There were no fatal collisions this year and <br />one fatal collision last year (Hopyard Road <br />at Clorox Way – northbound driver fell <br />asleep, hit another northbound vehicle at <br />high speed and that vehicle went into signal <br />pole). Over the past 20 years there have <br />been 22 fatalities which averages <br />approximately one fatality per year. <br />The percentage of vehicle collisions occurring at night versus day trended to more daytime collisions <br />(30 percent of all collisions occurring at night and 70 percent during the day). These figures are very <br />close to the historical average (nighttime collisions at 31 percent and daytime collisions at 68 percent). <br />Collision Types <br />0% <br />10% <br />20% <br />30% <br />40% <br />50% <br />Property <br />Damage Only <br />Complaint of <br />Pain <br />Other Visible <br />Injury <br />Severe Injury Fatal <br />Last Year Current Year <br />Degree of Injury <br />38% <br />36% <br />23% <br />3% <br />DEGREE OF INJURY PERCENT <br />Property <br />Damage Only <br />Complaint of <br />Pain <br />Other Visible <br />Injury <br />Severe Injury
