Answer
My Department does not collect statistics on the number of fatalities or serious injuries, caused by drivers who have been deemed medically unfit to drive. The data used to publish statistics in relation to Road Traffic Collisions is sourced from the PSNI and does not include a marker in relation to fitness to drive.
