Fire and Rescue RTI extrications by age/sex

This also uses the Home Office on Fire and Rescue involvement in Road Traffic Collisions. Again, these data are aggregated to the point they are difficult to use. But by way of understanding what’s here, I’ve tried looking at an “Extrication rate”. For each sex and age grouping, I’ve calculated the number of STATs19 reported serious casualties and used this as a denominator.

Now, this requires so much more checking and other work needed. But the implication is that female casualties are more likely to need an extrication than a male casualty. At first glance that is a little counter-intuitive and implies a whole lot more work to figure out what I might have missed here.
