*Fatality Rate Formula: Fatality Rate =
[(Number of Fatalities / Total VMT) x 100].
**Includes all occupants and nonoccupants
killed in all bus crashes.
Note: Individual subtotals may not add to totals
due to the potential for double counting
(e.g., fatalities or injuries in a truck-bus crash).
Sources: NHTSA, fatalities and injuries;
FHWA, vehicle miles traveled (VMT). |
