List of traffic collisions (before 2000)

This list of traffic collisions records serious road crashes: those that have a large death toll, occurred in unusual circumstances, or have some other historical significance.

For crashes that killed notable people, refer to List of people who died in traffic collisions.

The prevalence of bus crashes in this list is a function of severity rather than of frequency.

This list records crashes up to the year 1999.

For later crashes see: List of traffic collisions (2000–present).
