Hi, would like to know if data is collected for all road accidents in New Zealand involving drivers with foreign or international drivers licenses and if possible their country of origin.
I am doing a degree level statistics paper and have noticed (especially in Northland where I live) the amount of fatalities involving foreign drivers lately. I think also, that the NZ public deserve to know the impact of these drivers on the NZ people, not only socially but also the cost to taxpayers through ACC.
Request received
Yes, the data is collected regarding drivers involved in injury traffic crashes. Specific requests should be sent tocas.info@nzta.govt.nz and give time period for the data sample, coverage ie all NZ or district etc they need to specify what data they actually want.
