As part of a rural routes initiative by Leicestershire County Council, all roads assigned as national speed limit have been reviewed to identify those with an
accident rate higher than the national average.
According to the paper's authors, "results using the combined data (i.e., all four accident types) indicate a significant reduction in the total
accident rate" (48 percent for the Flight Hour Method and 53 percent for the Fleet Method) and in the fatal
accident rate (88 and 89 percent, respectively).
He said that the government's development projects will not be successful unless the
accident rate is reduced.
Despite some spikes, the directionality is essentially flat, which confirms a declining fatal
accident rate because as more aircraft entered service and more hours were flown, raw numbers of fatal crashes haven't increased.
The all
accident rate (measured in accidents per 1 million flights) was 1.35, which was the equivalent of one accident for every 740,000 flights.
The all
accident rate (measured in accidents per 1 million flights) was 1.35, versus the all
accident rate of 1.79 for the previous 5-year period (2013-2017), but a decline compared to 2017's record performance of 1.11.
"If the
accident rate had remained the same as 10 years ago there would have been 39 fatal accidents last year," ASN CEO Harro Ranter said.
Unknown even to most naval aviators is a larger and equally dramatic story: the Navy's struggle to bring its aviation
accident rate under control.
It found the A193, which runs between Newcastle and Bedlington, had an
accident rate of 2.53 per one million vehicle-miles driven.
These contrast with the average
accident rate of 1.48 for the UK.
It revealed that the A4040, also famous for being the 26-mile number 11 bus route, has an
accident rate of 3.3 prangs and crashes for every 1 million vehicle miles driven.
