| †Large truck fatal crash statistics from 2019 incorporate changes the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) implemented to revise vehicle classification based on gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR). Due to this methodology change, comparisons of this Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) large truck data with prior years should be performed with caution. | ||||||
| Note: A large truck is defined as a truck with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) greater than 10,000 pounds. | ||||||
