Compare the same measure across two years
This brief uses the 2022 OTS table and 2023 OTS table for Burbank. Source pages checked September 25, 2026. It is a historical snapshot, not live reporting.
| Measure | 2022 | 2023 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| All collision categories | 596 | 546 | -50 (-8.4%) |
| Alcohol-involved collisions | 40 | 37 | -3 (-7.5%) |
| Motorcycle-involved collisions | 24 | 23 | -1 (-4.2%) |
| Pedestrian-involved collisions | 61 | 47 | -14 (-23.0%) |
| Bicyclist-involved collisions | 26 | 17 | -9 (-34.6%) |
| Measure | 2022 | 2023 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Speed-related fatal or injury collisions | 65 | 62 | -3 (-4.6%) |
| Nighttime fatal or injury collisions (9:00 p.m. to 2:59 a.m.) | 34 | 35 | +1 (+2.9%) |
| Hit-and-run fatal or injury collisions | 42 | 31 | -11 (-26.2%) |
Change = 2023 minus 2022. Percentage change uses the 2022 count as its denominator and is rounded to one decimal place.
What stands out in Burbank
The pedestrian-involved victim count decreased from 61 to 47, and the bicyclist-involved count decreased from 26 to 17. Hit-and-run fatal or injury collisions decreased from 42 to 31. Each is a comparison of the same named measure across the two years, not an estimate of how often an individual person will be hurt.
One selected measure moved in the other direction: nighttime fatal or injury collisions increased from 34 to 35. Here, nighttime means 9:00 p.m. through 2:59 a.m., not every hour after sunset. That single-collision difference does not explain a cause or support a claim about all evening travel in Burbank.

Read the limits with the numbers
The OTS methodology draws on SWITRS police-reported data. Victim measures combine people killed and injured; one collision can affect several people. The second table counts collisions. Property-damage-only events are excluded, and categories can overlap.
City coverage excludes CHP reports on roads with shared jurisdiction. These are not complete geographic counts of every crash within city boundaries. City and county figures overlap and should not be added.
These counts are not adjusted for travel, population, or reporting differences. They cannot rank individual risk, establish fault, or identify a cause. Publisher revisions may change historical figures; the downloadable files preserve this dated snapshot.
Use this brief responsibly
For Burbank, preserve the time window when referring to nighttime figures. Citywide counts cannot tell a resident whether a particular route, crossing, or time of day is safer without more detailed data.
For questions about an actual collision, start with its report and evidence. Burbank accident report guide and our plain-English report decoder can help you organize the next step. General statistics do not determine an individual claim.

Common questions
How many people were killed or injured in the Burbank OTS city series for 2023?
OTS lists 546 victims killed or injured, compared with 596 in 2022. This is a combined victim measure under OTS city coverage, not a death-only count or a count of collisions.
Can these figures show who caused my collision?
No. Citywide historical totals do not establish responsibility for a particular collision. An individual assessment requires the relevant evidence and circumstances.
