Abstract

The Region of Murcia is the sixth province of Spain with the largest resident foreign population in absolute values. Most of these foreigners are immigrants for work reasons and others choose this region for vacation or leisure reasons. As a whole, in the region of Murcia people of more than 175 different nationalities live together, people who, despite having different habits, ways of life and customs, end up coinciding on the roads of the region, in the movements they make in their vehicles in their daily life. The DGT carries out statistical studies of almost all the variables that can be measured in a road accident, but there are no studies that measure these variables in relation to the nationality of the driver of the accident vehicle. The purpose of this paper is to show how road accident data behaves if they are analyzed based on the national origin of the driver.
