a Includes passenger car occupants, motorcyclists, light-duty and large truck occupants, bus occupants, pedestrians, pedalcyclists, occupants of unknown vehicle types, and other nonmotorists.
b Injuries resulting from train accidents, train and nontrain incidents, and occupational illness. Includes Amtrak. 1970 data are not comparable to data for later years due to a change in the reporting system.
c Injuries resulting from all reportable incidents, not just from accidents. Includes commuter rail, heavy rail, light rail, motorbus, demand responsive, van pool, and automated guideway.
d Injuries unrelated to vessel accidents, e.g., an individual getting a cut while onboard a vessel.
Key: N = data do not exist;
R = revised;
U = unavailable.
Note: Each mode may use different reporting criteria for injuries.
