Data about injury road accidents are collected by the police and reported to the Scottish Executive using the STATS 19 statistical report form. These returns cover only road accidents in which one or more people were injured; they do not cover damage only accidents.The following table gives the numbers of injury road accidents, in the five years 1997 to 2001 inclusive, which were identified in the STATS 19 returns as occurring on the:(a) Carbeth to Blanefield stretch of the B821, from its junction with the A809 to its junction with the A81;(b) Craigmaddie to Bardowie road, from its junction with the A81 to its junction with the A807;(c) Bardowie to Milngavie stretch of the A807, from its junction with the Bardowie to Craigmaddie road to its junction with the A81;(d) Bardowie to Bearsden stretch of the B8049, from its junction with the A807 to its junction with the A81;(e) Craigmaddie to Baldernock to Milngavie Road, from its junction with the A81 at Craigmaddie to its junction with the Baldernock to Bardowie road and thence to its junction with the A81 at Milngavie, and (f) Mugdock to Milngavie road, from its junction with Old Mugdock Road to its junction with Drumclog Avenue, Milngavie. It should be noted that the statistics given are based upon the data which are held in the central statistical database and which were collected by the police at the time of the accident and subsequently reported to the Executive. They may differ from any figures which the local authority would provide now, because they do not take account of any subsequent changes or corrections that the local authority may have made to the statistical information, for use at local level, about the location of each accident, based upon its knowledge of the road and area concerned.
