a Includes passenger car
occupants, motorcyclists, light-duty and large-truck occupants, bus
occupants, occupants of unknown vehicle types, and pedestrians,
pedalcyclists, 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 response, van pool, and automated
guideway.
d The National Transit
Database (NTD) injury definition was changed in 2002 so that only incidents
involving immediate medical treatment away from the scene qualify as
reportable injuries. Previously, any reported incident/injury was reported to
NTD.
e Injuries unrelated to vessel
accidents, e.g., an individual getting a cut while onboard a vessel.
Key: N = data are nonexistent; P = preliminary; U = unavailable.
Note: Each mode may use different reporting criteria for
injuries.
