The nature of the criminal offenses investigated is 36%, i.e. slightly more than every third criminal offense against traffic safety and transport operation is serious or particularly serious. Almost 70% of these criminal offenses are crimes and 30% are criminal offenses. The largest number of criminal offenses against traffic safety and transport operation is found in Kyiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Odesa, Kharkiv, Kyiv and Lviv oblasts, and the smallest in Luhansk, Chernihiv, Ternopil, Kirovohrad and Khmelnytsky oblasts.
