Evolution of the risk of death and hospitalisation in drivers involved in road crashes in spain, 1993–2020: an age-period-cohort analysis
RD and RDH decreased during the first decade of the 21st century, but seemed to stabilise from 2013 onwards. Evidence from this study support that birth cohort is associated with road crash severity, independent of age and period. This cohort effect might be due, at least partially, to improvements in general and road safety education. Further studies are needed to elucidate the causes of our findings and to identify factors accounting for sex differences.
