  • Abstract:
    A statistical projection of traffic fatalities for the first half of 2010 shows that an estimated 14,996 people died in motor vehicle traffic crashes. This represents a decline of about 9.2 percent as compared to the 16,509 fatalities that occurred in the first half of 2009, as shown in Table 1. The second quarter of 2010 will be the 17th consecutive quarter of declines in fatalities as compared to the same quarter from the previous year, as illustrated by the highlighted percentages in Table 1. Traffic fatalities have been declining steadily since reaching a near-term peak in 2005. Preliminary data reported by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) shows that vehicle miles traveled (VMT) in the first six months of 2010 increased by about 1.6 billion miles, or about a 0.1-percent increase. Also shown in Table 1 are the fatality rates per 100 million VMT, by quarter. The fatality rate for the first six months of 2010 declined to 1.02 fatalities per 100 million VMT, down from 1.12 fatalities per 100 million VMT in the first half of 2009.
