verotustyypit

Verotustyypit, also known as "verotustyyppi" in Finnish, refers to a classification system used in Finland to categorize different types of road traffic accidents based on their severity and the circumstances surrounding them. The system is part of the Finnish Road Safety Act and is used by the Finnish Transport and Communications Agency (Traficom) to monitor and analyze road safety data.

The classification system includes several categories, each with its own specific criteria. For example, Category 1 accidents are defined as those where at least one person is killed or seriously injured, while Category 2 accidents involve injuries that are not as severe as those in Category 1. The system also includes categories for accidents involving pedestrians, cyclists, and other vulnerable road users.

The verotustyypit system is used to track trends in road safety, identify high-risk areas, and evaluate the effectiveness of road safety measures. It is also used to inform policy decisions and allocate resources for road safety initiatives. The system is regularly updated to reflect changes in road safety practices and technologies.

In addition to the verotustyypit system, Finland also uses other classification systems for road traffic accidents, such as the European Road Accident Information Exchange (EURALEX) system, which is used for international comparisons and data exchange. Overall, the verotustyypit system plays a crucial role in Finland's efforts to improve road safety and reduce the number of road traffic accidents.
