Road collision data are collected and published by An Garda Síochána. This information is shared with the Road Safety Authority for research and analysis purposes. Specific queries on the number of personal powered transporters involved in recorded collisions should be directed to An Garda Síochána as the data holder. For the Deputy's information, certain roads policing statistics to the end of August and for previous years can be accessed here: www.garda.ie/en/roads-policing/statistics/.
