Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what estimate he has made on the number of motorcyclists (a) killed and (b) seriously injured in each year between 2014 and 2017.

The tables below provide the number of motorcyclists killed and seriously injured between 2014 and 2017 and the weekly average which is derived from this. The annual data can be found in published table RAS30066 here: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/743654/ras30066.ods

Reported motorcycle user casualties, Great Britain, 2014-2017

Please note that the number of serious injuries provided is as reported by the police. Since 2016, changes in severity reporting systems for a large number of police forces mean that serious injury figures, and to a lesser extent slight injuries, are not comparable with earlier years.
