The United Nations (2023) points out that in developing countries, 90\% of traffic accidents are the leading cause of death among children and young people aged 5 to 29. These accidents result in annual losses of 2\% to 5\% of Gross Domestic Product and cause the deaths of 1.3 million and injuries to 50 million people. The total number of traffic accidents that occurred in Nicaragua from 2010 to 2021 was analyzed, as reported by the Nicaraguan National Police and recorded in the database of the Institute of Development Information (INIDE). During the study period, traffic accidents increased by 93\%. The trend of the total number of accidents and total number of injuries is decreasing. However, the total number of fatalities is increasing; therefore, when accidents occur, they tend to be fatal. The multiple regression model with the total number of accidents as the endogenous variable is explained by the age of those involved in traffic accidents and the total number of injuries by gender. This is significant (P=0.000).The variation in one percent of the total number of accidents will be an increase of 96\% in traffic accidents, the variation in one percent of the age of traffic accidents will increase by 5.7\% (ceteris paribus).} \vspace{-7pt} \keywords{accidents; traffic; model.} \vspace{-12pt} %%%%%%% END OF ABSTRACT %%%%%%% FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS \medskip \vspace{-25pt} \begin{thebibliography}{99.}% % % % Use \bibitem to create references. % % Online Document \vspace{-5pt} \bibitem{science-online} OMS.(08/23/2018).
