Accidents that took place in 2020 are marked on the map.
The app uses official data from The Department of Transport, which it then inputs onto an interactive map.
It shows you where ‘fatal’, ‘serious’ and ‘slight’ driving collisions took place in your area.
According to the interactive map, more than 200 driving collisions took place on and around Bournemouth roads back in 2020.
However, some roads are more dangerous than others with multiple crashes taking place on them last year.
