One point is that I would be very wary of using KSI, better to use fatality data only, as it will be pretty accurate. The trouble with the SI data is that a) their collection is not complete, and b) the definition may vary from country to country. You need to be especially careful comparing pedestrian and cyclist casualty rates, be it fatalities or SI's. All the official studies get it wrong because they fail to understand that pedestrian falls are not recorded anywhere as transport casualties, so they get missed out.
