Road accidents with casualties in Israel 2018-2021, by type of road
In 2021, Israel registered over seven thousand road accidents with casualties. Of these, 7,856 happened on urban roads and 3,698 on non-urban roads. In 2020, the total number of road accidents declined, partly due to less traffic as a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic travel restrictions. Another drop in the number of road accidents was recorded in 2018 – around 1,000 fewer than in 2017.
