* Number of recorded victims.

^ Number of legal actions commenced; including referrals to court and infringement notices.

# In July 2003, the NSW Police changed the way they classified traffic incidents. The incidence of specific driving offences was no longer able to be determined directly from police incident categories. From 2003, in response to this change, the unit of measurement used by the Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research when reporting driving offences became the number of legal actions commenced by police rather than the number of incidents recorded. Legal actions include infringement notices, court referrals, formal cautions under the Young Offenders Act and Youth Conference referrals. From 2003 onwards, the driving offences reported have accorded with those in the Australian Standard Offence Classification (ASOC).
