This paper aims to investigate the inspections and accidents that took place in the period that covers the years 2012 to 2017, and the data collected in the CET database. After calculations based on Pearson's linear correlation and simple linear regression (calculations made from the variables of inspection and accident), it has been verified the correlation between the variables and the formula of the regression line was obtained. In the end, with the data collected and the results obtained, being restricted to those; it was considered that the number of inspections impacts on the amount of accidents, at a discrete level.
