Explanatory Notes

This publication contains details of the number of serious injury road crashes involving Heavy Vehicles that occurred in South Australia during JUNE 2011 together with comparable figures for some earlier periods. Figures relating to the current year are provisional and may be subject to revision. Caution should be exercised in interpreting the statistics in the publication in light of the size of the numbers and the short time period involved.

A serious injury occurs if a road crash results in the hospitalisation, but not death, within 30 days, of any person involved in the road crash. A serious injury crash is any road crash which results in one or more serious injuries. In this publication, "Adelaide" means the Adelaide Statistical Division.
