- •
A detailed overview of social costs of road crashes in 17 countries is presented.
- •
Costs are 2.7% of GDP on average in high income countries and 2.2% of GDP in LMICs.
- •
A major part of the costs (50%) relates to injuries and 23%–30% to fatalities.
- •
Methodological differences (partly) explain variations in costs.
- •
Harmonizing cost studies and improving international guidelines are recommended.
