Analysis of costs of accidents involving motorcyclists in Jataí - Goiás in the period from 2013 to 2015


 Background

The occurrence of traffic accidents is a public health problem present throughout Brazil. These accidents generate consequences of personal, social and economic nature. Thus, our objective is to analyze the costs of accidents involving motorcyclists, according to the type of accident, with or without victim, using data taken from traffic accident reports provided by the Military Police in the years 2013 to 2015.
Methods

The data extracted from these reports were analyzed based on the reports of the Institute of Applied Economic Research and the Informatics Department of the Unified Health System. To arrive at the corrected calculation, the accumulated Consumer Price Index for each year was also used.
Results

In Jataí, 1,118 traffic accidents were recorded, 256 without victims and 862 with victims in the analyzed period. Such accidents cost the municipality more than fifteen million reais from 2013 to 2015, costs that involve production losses for society, medical-hospital costs, early retirements, and police and judicial costs. This database was also used to generate a map showing the density of accidents for the same period, which made it possible to identify the neighborhoods with the highest traffic occurrences in the city of Jataí.
Conclusions

These data are tools that enable a deep reflection on the subject, besides serving as a parameter for establishing road safety policies, mapping the occurrences, as well as improving factors that minimize traffic accidents. Analysis of these data makes it possible to understand the expenses and describe the places where traffic accidents occurred in the city of Jataí, GO, Brazil.
