Reported road traffic accidents in the address's kommune, fylke and the country

What this does not say
Quoted verbatim from the section’s warnings field, exactly as the API returns it. They are not translated: a translation would show something other than what your response actually contains.
- Annual totals for the address's kommune, its fylke and Norway, never incidents at or near the address. A kommune re-coded in the 2020 or 2024 reforms is followed across its codes (region_code says which code carried each year); a merged kommune's pre-merger years are those of the kommune that kept the name.
- killed and injured are null where the collected rows do not carry them.
Fields
4 of 10 fields are value fields — the ones that decide whether a record actually says anything. The rest are context: identifiers, codes and timestamps. Fields marked “open” return values to anonymous callers; the rest require a key.
