☆Funnel plot data shows mortality risk by the number of cases for each site. Solid grey line represents the mean. Dashed contours represent two standard deviations (95 % control limits) and three standard deviations (99.8 % control limits) from the mean. Those above and below these lines are considered outliers, with a 5 % and 0.2 % chance of a false positive, respectively.
☆☆Figure presents data from four financial years. Absolute number of pedestrians is on the left y-axis and refers to Fatal injury (black fill) and Serious Injury (striped column). Proportion of patients is indicated on the right y-axis and refers to % Fatal (grey fill) and % Serious (striped triangle).
★Data is from 2015 to 2019, presented in 10-year age groups, and split into male (striped) and female (no fill).
