The Department for Transport published a statistical dataset which provides data on “Reported road accidents” which may be of interest to you. Table RAS10005 provides reported accidents broken down by accidents that occurred either in “daylight” and “darkness”. In table RAS50007 you can find reported accidents by contributory factor and severity for the years 2012-2016. “Dazzling sun” and “Rain, sleet, snow or fog” falls under the “Vision affected by external factors” category.
