Daily updated provisional road deaths
Details of fatal crashes are received from NZ Police and summarised here. These figures are provisional and may include deaths or crashes which are subsequently excluded. Reasons for exclusion include the crash being intentional (suicide, homicide), due to a medical event or not occurring on a public road (e.g. a driveway). Figures include crashes up to midnight.
