725 men have died on Australian roads in 2026, to the end of September.
That's 12 fewer than the same months of 2025 (737). This page refreshes itself whenever the national road deaths database is updated, around the 14th of each month.

Why no live suicide count?
Suicide figures depend on coroners' findings, which take months. The ABS publishes them once a year, in October, for the year before. The latest is 2,425 male suicides in 2025 (preliminary). The 2026 figures are due around October 2027.
Some states publish faster suicide registers, but they aren't national or comparable, so they're not mixed in here.
