Buenos Aires

Same as Santiago, matrix available for region (city is 83% of region’s population), but many unspecified categories. We do not have counts of deaths for the city. For now, placeholder, using the same data as Mexico city(victim counts only)

Santiago

Matrix available for the ‘region’. We do not even have total road deaths counts of the ‘city’. Have searched literature but there is nothing. Provided by Luis and Kavi. Need to ask which year is the data. Update: Matrix of 4-year period sent by Luis. He has confirmed that the data corresponds to 5 million population region of Santiago city.

Mexico City

Total number of deaths is available (Andrea) but the matrix has a large proportion of unspecified road user categories. We planned to use prediction model. For now, used GBD-reported road death counts by victim type. In GBD, motor vehicle was a single category which was divided into cars, trucks and buses using their relative share from police data. GBD total deaths is about 1200, and police data is 1700 but has other land transport accidents about 400, therefore, it is possible GBD data may be reporting those (1700 minus 400), but we cannot be sure. For now used GBD reported number, as also easier to defend. Estimation procedure in ITHIM-R\data\local\mexico\mexico city victim death counts estimation.xlsx
