The Swedish Road and Traffic Research Institute (VTI) was commissioned by the Swedish Road Safety Office to study injury statistics to find a more detailed identification of the traffic safety problems and their changing pattern. During the 1980s, almost 50% of the numbers killed or injured in traffic were injured in accidents in built-up areas. The increase in injured car drivers has been greatest. For some road user categories the number of injured has been fairly constant or slightly lower. In regard to the exposure of car drivers in traffic, the greatest change observed during the 1980s is that more women are driving longer distances. By relating the number of killed and injured in traffic to the size of the population, traffic can be studied in terms of a health problem. The health risk has increased every year since 1981 and is higher for men than for women. The number of killed and injured in traffic compared to the number that would have been killed and injured if the health risk level prevailing in 1981 had applied is estimated at almost 11,000 people.
