According to the ONISR final figures, 236 people died on the roads in 2017 (152 in overseas departments and regions and 84 in overseas communities and New Caledonia), 25 fewer than in 2016 (- 9.6%). On the other hand, registered personal injuries increased by + 8.9% (2,611 accidents, +214), as well as the number of people injured (3,457 injured, +283 victims or + 8.9%) and the number hospitalizations (1,682 hospitalizations, + 52 ie 3.2%).

The number of deaths per million inhabitants overseas is 86 in 2017, for 53 in mainland France. But each territory has its specificities. The average rate over the last five years is 55 in Reunion, 131 in Guadeloupe, and 192 in New Caledonia.

In the Overseas, motorist mortality accounts for just under half of road deaths overseas with 96 deaths, a stable result compared to 2016 but much higher than in 2013 (71 deaths); Motorized two-wheeler users, with 74 deaths, a decline from 2016, account for one-third of overseas mortality. The fatalities of pedestrians (46 deaths) and cyclists (11 deaths) are slightly lower than 2016 (4 fewer deaths each).

Mortality among 18-24 year olds is down with 44 deaths compared to 52 in 2017, while the youth population is larger overseas than in France. Mortality among people aged 65 and over is slightly higher (27 deaths in 2017 compared to 22 in 2016). Men's share of road deaths is higher than in metropolitan France (86% vs. 77%). This strong overrepresentation is expressed even beyond 45 years.

The factors "speed" and "alcohol" are the leading causes of fatal accidents and two features are highlighted:

For motorized two-wheeler users, half of those who died did not wear the helmet.

For motorists, the majority of deceased victims were not wearing seatbelts.
