During 1986 in the Netherlands 43,851 traffic accidents were recorded. 1,529 persons were fatally injured, while 14,701 traffic victims were hospitalized and another 35,380 persons were slightly injured. Compared with the figures for 1985 this is an increase of 3%. In the 5-25 age group, traffic is the most important cause of death. In the 15-19 age category 36% of all deaths are caused by a traffic accident. After the last war there was a peak in birthrate. Thereafter a decrease in the number of births. These waves have their influence on traffic safety. Due to the peak the number of elderly people will increase. Most of those people have a car. The mortality for that age category will increase proportionally.
