Abstract:In accordance with Section 56-5-1350 of the South Carolina Code of Laws, a tabulation and analysis of collision reports has been completed for the year 2007 as disclosed in this publication. The number of traffic fatalities increased from 1,044 in 2006 to 1,077 in 2007, a 3.2% increase. There was a slight increase in the mileage death rate (MDR) as well. It rose to 2.13 deaths per hundred million vehicle miles of travel from 2.10 in 2006. Traffic fatalities are the most severe consequence of motor vehicle collisions, but even in non-fatal collisions, the cost in human suffering can be severe. There were 49,262 reported traffic injuries in 2007, down 1.8% from 2006.
