Abstract

Early Assessment estimates based on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Fatality Analysis Reporting System and NASS General Estimates System revealed that 41,800 people lost their lives and an additional 3,219,000 persons were injured in the more than 6.2 million motor vehicle traffic crashes that occurred during 2000. This report contains these Early Assessment estimates for motor vehicle traffic crashes in 2000 and the resulting injuries and fatalities. They are compared to estimates from the 1999 Annual Files. Trends are shown for selected characteristics in the last section of the report. These Early Assessment estimates are based on data from sources most of which are incomplete or preliminary. Consequently, Early Assessment estimates will be superceded sometime during the summer of 2000 by numbers and estimates based on completed data files representing all of 2000. (A)
