Motorcycles account for 56.5% of parties involved. There were 4 deaths in this period. With numbers that small it is not meaningful to convert to a death rate and compare with other areas — a single accident moves it by several times.

Roads appearing most often in Anping Dist.

Counted by road names appearing in the accident address. Where the address is written as a junction (“A Rd / B Rd”), both roads are counted once.

Months with no recorded accidents are not listed.

The National Police Agency refreshes its rolling data on the 1st and 15th of each month, so the last month is still being filled in and will always read low. Do not compare it with earlier months.

How to read these numbers

More accidents does not mean more dangerous. Places with more traffic, longer roads and denser population naturally record more. This data has no traffic volume to divide by, so a rate per ten thousand vehicle passes cannot be computed; it can only tell you where accidents actually happened.

The road ranking counts road names appearing in the address. In Taiwan 26% of accident addresses are written as a reference point along a road rather than an exact position, so this ranking is reliable at the level of a road but not at the level of a junction.

Only A1 and A2 accidents, which involve casualties, are included. Property-damage-only collisions are not, so the real number of collisions is higher.
