The prevention of serious road accidents is always one of the important jobs of road traffic safety management because of the number of fatalities involved and the serious social impact. Among serious road accidents, a single accident with more than 10 fatalities is extraordinarily serious. This paper analyzes the characteristics of and causes of extraordinarily serious road accidents with over 10 fatalities in one accident that have occurred in China in recent years. The number of extraordinarily serious road accidents has declined overall, but they still happened frequently. These accidents happen mainly in the western region, especially in the southwest region of China. Accidents occurring on rural roads accounted for a large proportion. The run-off-road accident was the most common pattern. This paper proposes countermeasures to further curb extraordinarily serious road accidents.
