Abstract:
The Ohio Department of Public Safety is pleased to present the 2007 Ohio Traffic Crash Facts Book, an in-depth highway safety statistical profile and analysis compiled from data supplied by law enforcement agencies from across the state. This annual report provides a comprehensive look at the driving habits of Ohioans. It also helps the Ohio Department of Public Safety and local law enforcement agencies determine priorities and allocate resources to improve highway safety in Ohio. In 2007, Ohio continued to make improvements in highway safety. The traffic crash fatality rate stayed near the historic low set last year, while Ohio experienced declines in both rural traffic fatalities, which account for nearly two-thirds of all traffic deaths, and alcohol-related fatalities. The statistics for fatal and injury crashes among Ohio’s youngest drivers continue to improve. Fatal crashes and injury crashes involving teen drivers ages 15-18 have declined by nearly 30 percent during the past five years – a positive sign that increased vigilance and recent law changes are making an impact in our efforts to keep Ohio’s youngest drivers safe.
