*Fatality Rate Formula: Fatality rate = [(Number of fatalities involving large trucks and buses / Total VMT) x 100].	Preliminary. *Data not available.
****Includes all occupants and nonoccupants killed in all bus crashes. Note: Individual subtotals may not add to totals due to the potential for double counting (e.g., fatalities or injuries in a truck-bus crash). Sources: NHTSA, fatalities and injuries; FHWA, vehicle miles traveled (VMT).
