## Usage

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("electricsheepafrica/africa-ghana-annual-distribution-of-fatalities-by-road-user-class-48301846")
df = ds["train"].to_pandas()
print(df.head())
```

### Filter to one country

```python
sample_country = df[df["country_iso3"] == "GHA"]
```

### Work with indicators

```python
if "indicator_id" in df.columns:
    print(df["indicator_id"].value_counts().head())
    sample = df.sort_values([c for c in ["indicator_id", "year"] if c in df.columns])
```
