    NOTE: This table was replaced on 1/07/2005. State fatality counts in the previous version of this table, posted from 9/23/2004 to 1/07/2005, were based on the Reference State rather than State of Incident, resulting in higher fatality counts in some years for some States. Only State counts were affected—all other counts are unchanged.

    This table was replaced on 8/7/2007. There was an error, affecting only this table, in the data for two race categories, posted from 9/23/2004 to 8/5/2007. This affected the race fatality counts for the "Asian, Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander" and the "Other races or not reported" categories in the data for 1992 through 1998. The current version of this table, made available on 01/31/2008, corrects this error.
