THE number of people who died on Queensland's roads during the recent school holidays is nearly double the death toll during the same time last year.
Police say 21 people died during the June and July holidays compared with 11 in that same period last year.
Police Commissioner Ian Stewart says this is unacceptable.
"When we talk about the road toll, we often get caught up in facts and figures - but the cold, hard reality is - 21 people are no longer with us," he said.
More than 900 people were injured in serious crashes in that same period.
Police fined 56,536 motorists for speeding, 886 were caught not wearing seatbelts and 1,448 people were issued with a traffic infringement notice for using a mobile phone while driving.
Of the 187,285 random breath tests conducted, 1418 motorists were detected drink driving.
